"Amanda Knox has become engaged to a 27-year-old musician who wrote to her while she was in an Italian prison.",
"The 27-year-old will reportedly marry Colin Sutherland, who Knox has known since middle school.",
"But as their families celebrate in Washington, a legal back and forth continues in Italy as Knox and her co-defendant and ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito fight back against their 2014 re-conviction by an Italian upper court for the murder of British student Meredith Kercher.",
"Engaged! Amanda Knox (right) is reportedly engaged to her childhood friend, musician Colin Sutherland (left) The news of Knox's engagement was first reported in a Seattle Times column on Wednesday.",
"Columnist Jonathan Martin writes that Knox confirmed the engagement to him via email buut said no more.",
"The pair were engaged last week.",
"No date has been set for the nuptials.",
"Before her current love was revealed in September, Knox was known to be living in Seattle with her classical guitarist then-boyfriend James Terrano.",
"A LinkedIn profile for Sutherland once listed his name as Thunderstrike after the Marvel comic-book character - says he studied French at Sarah Lawrence .",
"Sutherland once lived in Brooklyn but has since moved back to Seattle, where he and Knox attended middle school.",
"Here, Knox is pictured with Sutherland in New York during a visit in July .",
"Sealed with a kiss: Sutherland (again seen here with Knox during her visit to New York as they locked lips at Coney Island) and Knox reported were engaged last week .",
"Childhood friend: Sutherland reportedly wrote to Knox as she sat in an Italian prison following her 2009 conviction.",
"The pair have known each other since middle school .",
"She was set to graduate from the University of Washington this past June with a degree in creative writing.",
"She's now working at a Seattle bookstore and as a writer for the West Seattle Herald.",
"Meanwhile, her case is headed back into the Italian courts once again following an initial conviction, an overturning of that conviction followed by her reconviction along with Sollecito.",
"It seems unlikely Knox, who now lives in the U.S, will ever be returned to jail for the crime as she has repeatedly refused to return to Italy.",
"If she is convicted again, Italy is likely to request to extradite her but her longstanding battle to prove her innocence has made her a cause célèbre in the U.S who may ignore political pressure to send her back.",
"Sollecito and Knox were first found guilty of murder in November 2009.",
"The previous man: Knox was last known before Sutherland to be dating classical guitarist James Terrano, who she reportedly lived with in Seattle, Washington .",
"The killers' convictions were later quashed after experts said forensic evidence had been contaminated and they were released.",
"Prosecutors then appealed that finding and the case was re-tried in March 2013.",
"In January last year a court upheld the original verdict, but the pair remained at large as under Italy's legal system, any verdict reached after a second appeal but be ratified by the highest court.",
"Since the last verdict, Sollecito, 30, has stayed in Italy.",
"He was ordered to remain there after being found near the Italian border with Slovenia and Austria hours after being found guilty for the second time.",
"He has since completed a degree in information technology.",
"Back then: Knox was accused along with her then boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito (both at left) of brutally murdering Knox's roommate in Perugia, Italy Meredith Kercher, 21 (right) in 2007 .",
"Kercher, 21, was found dead on the floor of her bedroom.",
"Some of her belongings were missing and Knox reported an apparent burglary to police.",
"Detectives concluded the supposed break-in looked staged and Knox became the prime suspect.",
"She then implicated Patrick Lumumba, a bar owner she worked for.",
"The duo were arrested along with Sollecito.",
"Mr Lumumba was later released when evidence pointed to Rudy Guede's involvement.",
"Guede was then accused of committing the murder along with Sollecito and Knox.",
"In October 2008 he was found guilty of sexually assaulting and murdering Kercher.",
"Home for good: While it's highly unlikely that Knox would be extradited no matter what happens in court in March, her ex Raffaele Sollecito must face the music in his home country .",
"Still at risk: Since the last verdict, Sollecito, 30, has stayed in Italy."

"A new book features 250 children transformed into imaginative new scenes that took the creators 16 months to produce.",
"The making of Konrad Wimmel Is In Town, published today, saw photographer Jan von Holleben, from Germany, take more than 5,000 photos to construct the final images.",
"In a Where's Wally style, readers must locate Konrad and his friends in the pictures where they are on a wild chase after a thief who has pinched his grandmother's handbag.",
"Jan von Holleben has created a spectacular new book using hundreds of children to create the scenes .",
"Scenes include a zoo, complete with animals constructed from children, a traffic scene and an inventor's fair packed with wacky contraptions.",
"Jan, 37, said he wanted to create an inspirational series of images with the intent to show kids the infinite possibilities of life.",
"His project is a 'search-and-find book with a story to tell, including hundreds of photos.",
"'There are seven worlds teeming with life which promise all the fun of searching and finding - and nothing is impossible.",
"'In the park you can fly; no machine is impossible for inventors to invent; on the road you turn yourself into a vehicle; and in the zoo you can become any animal you wish to be.'",
"The book Konrad Wimmel Is In Town encourages readers to locate Konrad and his friends in the pictures .",
"Over the course of 16 months, 250 children were enlisted to take part in the project .",
"In order to make the children as involved as possible, Jan asked them to storyboard their own ideas .",
"Jan has been a photographer for over 20 years and found that it was this style of birds-eye scenery that was most popular.",
"He said: 'I started photographing in the Nineties and my success was boosted with my lying-on-the-floor-images, so I wanted to develop this technique further.",
"'Already at that time I started sketching scenarios with 50 to 60 kids in one single picture.",
"'During my first books for children and young readers, I worked very closely with the protagonists.",
"'It's almost like a movie director who has to give a lot of attention to his actors.",
"'At first, I found a school which liked the overall idea of the project and also wanted to participate.'",
"The mad scientist scene is Jan's personal favourite, which he says is the central piece to the book .",
"Jan has been a photographer for over 20 years and says that his scenery pictures are his most popular .",
"Out of all of his projects, this was Jan's most time-consuming and easily the most expensive .",
"Between 15 to 30 children were bought into Jan's studio each day to be photographed over 16 months .",
"In order to keep his characters smiling and more importantly, cooperative, Jan made sure to give them an active role in the creation of the pictures.",
"He said: 'For the following two to three weeks [after finding the school], my assistant and I started visiting different classes in order to win the kids over.",
"'Instead of preaching them about the idea, we used the chance to do workshops with them, getting them involved in the creative process right away.",
"'Beforehand, I had prepared seven sketched framework sceneries, which were later to become photographs: a school, a park, traffic, an inventor's fair, a sports field, a zoo and a grand party.",
"'These where designed to give the kids a visual outline for their own thoughts and ideas.'",
"By the end of the project, Jan was left with 5000 images to whittle down .",
"During the process, the team munched their way through 186 pizzas to keep them energised .",
"And the children worked their way through 45kg of sweets .",
"Jan is already planning his next book despite being left exhausted by his last project .",
"He continued: 'I asked the kids about their craziest fantasies, for example, the ideal school, how their favourite car would look like, what kind of sport they always have wanted to play.",
"'We goofed around with what the most ingenious invention would be, what it could look like and lastly how the most fantastic party could be celebrated.",
"'Within this process they sketched hundreds of pictures and gave a million wonderful and creative answers.",
"'Finally, we had lively conversations about the results.",
"'Casually, the kids began developing and planning their own parts in the images - not just acting it.",
"'This way we started building the content of the book together.",
"'In the following weeks, I worked out seven photographic worlds in my sketchbook from the collection and was ready to start with the next phase: the production.'",
"Jan (pictured) says that working with so many children required a lot of patience from not only his team but the children too .",
"Once Jan's and the children's ideas were in place, he had to narrow down the ideas as well as sort through 5,000 images.",
"He said: 'During four week of production, we invited 15 to 30 kids into our studio every day, made pictures like mad, dismissed some ideas, refined others and had many new ones, which we immediately put to practice.",
"'Following that, I assembled the outcome of over 5000 pictures to raw digital collages, which ultimately became the book's final images.",
"'At the creative level it often was like a wild funfair.",
"'Within the over 5000 single pictures, 100,000 possibilities and ideas and among 250 enthusiastic kids with their parents, my team, my publisher and the book, I often lost track about where I was currently standing.",
"'Gladly, my initial sense always guided me back on track and helped me maintain full emotional control about the project.",
"'Eventually, I began to value the order within the chaos - and learned controlling it.",
"'It was difficult, but also the greatest thing in the world to experience what such a little head on my shoulders can withstand.'",
"Jan says that he hopes the book will show children you can be anything you wish to be .",
"Jan says that the one unpredicted side effect was just how exhausting working with so many children would work out to be.",
"He said: 'The one factor that we underestimated was the physical and psychological task of working with so many kids for four weeks in a row, from dawn till dusk.",
"'I personally tuned to maximum performance, running thousands of times a day from camera to kids on the floor - and vis á vis.",
"'Not to forget, it was also the beginning of winter and half of the kids had a cold and a running nose, generously sharing their state with the fellow children.",
"'The every day challenge was to keep them happy on the floor and maintain and strengthen the relationship to every single child.'",
"'Respecting the kids in their work (and play) is very important and essential for me in this kind of work.",
"My team and the support of Katharina Ebinger, programme director of my publishing house Thienemann-Esslinger, was worth gold.'",
"5 weeks of daily photo shoots .",
"16 months of total production time .",
"45kg of sweets for everybody's nerves .",
"186 Pizzas for energy .",
"250 kids in various characters .",
"5,000 individual images .",
"Out of the hundreds of intricate scenes that Jan and his team created, he says that he can easily pick his favourite.",
"'The inventor's fair is my personal favourite.",
"You could regard this picture as the central piece of the book.",
"Jan says that not only was this the largest scale project that he has ever done but easily the most expensive.",
"'Looking at the numeric facts of Konrad Wimmel, the production was actually completely unaffordable.",
"All together, it quickly evolved into the biggest and most intense project I had ever done.'",
"Despite all of the complications Jan says he is extremely proud of the book that he and his team have created.",
"'It went beyond all my and others' expectations.",
"Furthermore it taught me a lot about my own creative process and my work as an artist.",
"In the end, I was exhausted like never before and never wanted to do such a project again.",
"I was empty. 'Now, seeing this book in front of me, everything is right in place - just like I dreamed of it.",
"Honestly, at this point I now feel like I never want to stop making pictures like these.",
"'I already have many new ideas and it just makes a lot of fun to think about what you can do with this technique in the future.",
"With all these people involved - it's infinite.'"

"From Monday, the popular Maryland seafood spice - which has a Sriracha sauce-like following, particularly in the Mid-Atlantic area - will be added to the tartar sauce of the fast good giant's Filet-O-Fish.",
"The idea was developed by McDonald's franchisee in - where else?",
"- Baltimore. Store owner Mark Furr said he came up with the idea because so many customers added Old Bay to the fried fish burger, and so he pitched the idea to his head office.",
"'We know that Old Bay is as popular as salt and pepper on our tables here in Baltimore,' Mr Furr told The Baltimore Sun.",

"It began as a spicing for bushels of blue crab, with the main ingredients of mustard, paprika, celery salt and bay leaves.",

"Threat: Lord and Lady Fink.",
"The Tory grandee said he could sue Ed Miliband over his remarks .",
"A Conservative grandee last night threatened to sue Ed Miliband for calling David Cameron a ‘dodgy prime minister surrounded by dodgy donors’.",
"In a spiralling row over revelations that backers of both main parties had Swiss bank accounts, the Labour leader raised allegations against Lord Fink, a Tory peer.",
"Lord Fink, who stepped down as party co-treasurer in 2010 and has given the Tories £3million, was among those named in documents seen by the BBC’s Panorama programme as being clients of HSBC’s Swiss private bank.",
"Labour donor Lord Paul, who helped to bankroll Gordon Brown’s leadership campaign, was also on the list.",
"The row comes amid claims that HSBC’s Swiss arm may have helped wealthy clients avoid or evade tax.",
"At Prime Minister’s Questions in the Commons, Mr Miliband called on Mr Cameron to say what he was going to do ‘to find out about the tax avoidance activities of Lord Fink’.",
"In some of the most intemperate exchanges since the last election, the Labour leader declared: ‘There’s something rotten at the heart of the Conservative Party and it’s you.’ Mr Cameron said the previous Labour government had done nothing to crack down on tax avoidance and was a ‘friend of the tax dodger’.",
"The Prime Minister said of Mr Miliband: ‘The only reason he is sitting there is that a bunch of trade union leaders decided he was more left wing than his brother.",
"‘For 13 years they [Labour] sat in the Treasury, they did nothing about tax transparency, nothing about tax dodging, nothing about tax avoidance.",
"‘This present government has been tougher than any previous government.",
"That’s why they Labour are desperate, that’s why they are losing.’ The row prompted a furious response from Lord Fink, who said he would take legal action against the Labour leader if he repeated his remarks outside Parliament, where they are legally privileged.",
"Lord Fink said he had run a business in Switzerland for four years and had needed ‘a local bank account’ for his salary and to ‘pay grocery bills’.",
"‘As I already banked with HSBC in London, I set up an account with HSBC,’ he wrote in a letter to Mr Miliband.",
"Miliband told the Prime Minister: 'There’s something rotten at the heart of the Conservative Party and it’s you' ‘I submitted tax returns in both Switzerland and Britain showing my revised tax status, which was accepted by the Inland Revenue.",
"‘I find it extraordinary that you have made claims against me that are without foundation or without contacting me.",
"I challenge you to repeat your allegation outside the House of Commons – or to withdraw it publicly.’ Lord Paul said he had held an account with HSBC for some time in Switzerland because he had a house there, and there was ‘nothing unsavoury’ about it.",
"Conservative MP Zac Goldsmith, named by the Guardian as another client of the bank, denied he held an account there.",
"‘I have never had a Swiss bank account, and do not control any Swiss bank accounts.",
"I have never sought or been given tax minimisation advice by HSBC, directly or indirectly,’ the MP said.",
"‘The fact is that I receive an income from an international trust, and I have paid taxes in full on all the income or capital gains I have received, irrespective of where these arise.’ His father Sir James Goldsmith, who had ‘non-domicile’ status, set up a family trust in Geneva to distribute money to the family, including to Zac and his brother Ben.",
"Claims: A string of public figures have come forward to deny any impropriety in their involvement with HSBC .",
"Overall, the Conservatives are said to have received more than £5million from HSBC clients with Swiss accounts.",
"Labour has benefited from cash and gifts in kind worth well over £500,000 and received a loan for £2million.",
"HM Revenue & Customs was passed a cache of documents in 2010 from France about clients of HSBC’s Swiss operation.",
"Offshore accounts are not against the law, but some people use them to hide cash from the tax authorities.",

"Williams was suspended for six months without pay on Tuesday after he admitted lying to his viewers about riding in a military helicopter hit by a rocket-propelled grenade during the Iraq war in 2003 .",
"Brian Williams tried and failed to secure a promise that he can definitely return to the Night News' anchor chair when his six month suspension ends in August, according to sources close to negotiations earlier this week at NBC.",
"Journalists at NBC News have described the departure of the star anchor who has led the top-rated Nightly News since 2004 as 'very painful.'",
"'People are angry at Brian,' one NBC News journalist told The Washington Post on condition of anonymity.",
"'We all worked so hard at establishing our credibility, and it feels like our credibility has been badly damaged.'",
"Sources at NBC News believe Williams made his own situation much worse with his misjudged and half-hearted on-air apology on February 4.",
"The anchor's statement that he had 'made a mistake in recalling the events of 12 years ago' did little to stem the growing controversy and insiders believe viewers simply didn't buy Williams' excuse.",
"'It was obvious it fell flat,' one insider told The Post.",
"'The world felt it was not contrite or fulsome enough.",
"'Williams' grave error was to continue to claim that he had merely forgotten the facts rather than that he had deliberately inflated his own role in the dangerous situation.",
"Top level: Williams' bosses NBC Chief Executive Stephen Burke and Deborah Turness, the president of NBC's news division, issued a joint statement on Tuesday night revealing that the anchor had been suspended .",
"'Ninety percent of the people knew it was not misremembering, it was making it up,' the source said.",
"Williams' situation quickly got worse as the spotlight was shone on other stories such as his reporting from New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and even a story about saving puppies while a volunteer fireman in the 1970s.",
"Executives at NBC however were most concerned with the Iraq fabrication.",
"'When helicopter crew members get shot down and you attach yourself to what they went through, it's pretty outrageous,' another internal source told the Post on condition of anonymity.",
"By now senior management such as NBC Chief Executive Steve Burke, NBC Universal News Group Chairman Pat Fili-Krushel and NBC News President Deborah Turness were involved and the idea of a self-imposed suspension was discussed.",
"Williams' predecessor Tom Brokaw was also involved.",
"'We will work every night to be worthy of your trust': Williams' temporary replacement Lester Holt directly addressed the controversy surrounding the anchor's suspension during Wednesday night's broadcast .",
"On Febuary 7 network officials agreed to let Williams take himself off the air for several days and it was announced that weekend anchor Lester Holt would fill in.",
"By now an internal investigation lead by veteran journalist Richard Esposito had also confirmed that Williams had lied about his Iraq helicopter story wrong - a conclusion senior management found unacceptable.",
"Esposito also unearthed other 'instances of exaggeration,' including issues with Williams' stories about what he had recalled seeing during Hurricane Katrina.",
"Further action was required and Burke considered three options - firing Williams outright, a lesser suspension and the option that was ultimately chosen.",
"Williams favored a short suspension that would allow him to maintain his position as managing editor.",
"'That was never going to happen,' a senior NBC official told The Washington Post.",
"The star anchor also failed to receive a promise from his bosses that his return is guaranteed.",
"On Monday senior officials concluded that Williams should be suspended for six months without pay and Burke contacted him to break the news.",
"Something missing?",
"The banner graphic for NBC Nightly News was wiped of Brian Willams' name starting Wednesday .",
"Williams, 55, has so far declined to comment on his suspension.",
"He may consider a suspension without a promise that he will get his job back tantamount to being fired and attempt to negotiate a settlement with NBC.",
"He is not allowed to make appearances without the approval of people at the network.",
"On Wednesday, the network changed the name of the broadcast from NBC Nightly News With Brian Williams to NBC Nightly News.",
"Acknowledging that it was 'an enormously difficult story' to report, the show aired a segment about Williams' six-month suspension and pledged to make itself worthy of viewers' trust.",
"Replacement anchor Holt opened the report by saying: 'And now to the story many of you are talking about tonight and one that for us not only hits close to home but in our home.'",
"Holt quoted from statements from Turness and Burke, in which they described Williams' actions as 'wrong and completely inappropriate,' and which jeopardized 'the trust millions of Americans place in NBC News.'",
"Holt then added: 'Now if I may on a personal note say it is an enormously difficult story to report.",
"'Brian is a member of our family, but so are you, our viewers and we will work every night to be worthy of your trust.'",
"Currently off the air after he admitted to lying about being hit by enemy fire in Iraq, a number of Williams' other seemingly outlandish claims are currently coming under increased scrutiny .",
"Red Bank, New Jersey, 1970s .",
"In a 2011 interview, Brian Williams recalled his time as a teenage volunteer firefighter during which he saved a puppy.",
"However in a 2005 Esquire interview, Williams had claimed to save not one but two puppies.",
"In the same Esquire interview Williams also revealed that he had been mugged at gunpoint while selling Christmas trees in the sleepy New Jersey town in which he grew up.",
"A number of locals have questioned the credibility of his claim that someone 'stuck a .38-caliber in my face'.",
"Iraq War, 2003 .",
"Over the years Williams has told multiple versions of a story about being in an Army Chinook helicopter during the Iraq War in 2003.",
"Last month he claimed his helicopter was hit by ground fire, an allegation he was later forced to admit was false after an outcry from soldiers who were present.",
"Williams issued an on-air apology and wrote on Facebook: 'Nobody's trying to steal anyone's valor.'",
"Hurricane Katrina, 2005 .",
"Williams has told several stories about his experiences reporting from New Orleans.",
"He has claimed to have seen a dead body float past the window of his hotel in the city's French Quarter – even though the area wasn't flooded.",
"The accuracy of other Katrina claims, including that he caught dysentery drinking the flood waters and that his hotel was 'overrun' with gangs, have been called into question by others who were on the ground during the disaster.",
"Israel, 2006 .",
"In a 2007 interview with Fairfield University Student Television, Williams recalled 'Katyusha rockets passing just underneath the helicopter I was riding in' during a trip to Israel.",
"In fact he was nowhere near enemy fire and in a broadcast segment filmed that day he described rocket fire 'six miles away'.",
"Boston, 2006 .",
"A Navy vet accused Williams of lying to skip an event honoring members of the Armed Forces so that he could appear on Saturday Night Live.",
"On the day of the Congressional Medal of Honor Society event the NBC News anchor told organizers that a 'pressing engagement' meant he wouldn't be able speak at the dinner, but later that evening he appeared in a walk-on role on SNL's Weekend Update."

"But, eight hours after the error was first spotted, the airline dashed the hopes of thousands of holidaymakers after refusing to honor any bookings made as a result of the online glitch, blaming a 'third-party error' for the mistake and accusing customers of trying to 'take advantage' of the situation.",
"For a brief period of time on February 11, round-trip, first class fares from London to Newark were available on United.com for just $74 .",
"Null and void: United issued a statement on Wednesday evening which said that the airline would refuse to honor bookings made during the website glitch .",
"'United is voiding the bookings of several thousand individuals who were attempting to take advantage of an error a third-party software provider made when it applied an incorrect currency exchange rate, despite United having properly filed its fares,' a statement issued by the airline said.",
"'Most of these bookings were for travel originating in the United Kingdom, and the level of bookings made with Danish Kroner as the local currency was significantly higher than normal during the limited period that customers made these bookings.'",
"The airline's announcement, which was released via its official Twitter account at approximately 6.20pm EST, prompted a flurry of irate replies from hundreds of disappointed customers.",
"A number of holidaymakers accused the company of violating the Department of Transportation's (DOT) regulations regarding airline travel, while others threatened to pursue legal action against United, particularly those who had received confirmation emails from the company hours earlier.",
"'Get ready for a couple of thousand DOT complaints,' one user wrote, while another added: 'So you f****d up and are retracting legal contracts?!",
"See you in court!' Outrage: Customers were quick to vent their frustration on Twitter with many threatening to pursue legal action against the airline .",
"Ruined reputation: Many questioned why the airline would risk destroying its credibility for the sake of saving money .",
"Several other customers merely voiced their frustration and anger at the situation, with many accusing United of ruining their eagerly-anticipated holidays.",
"'Fine. But you have to tell my kids we're not going to NY this summer,' a disappointed parent tweeted, while a second person promised to boycott the airline in the future, saying: 'I have been a @united customer for over a decade.",
"That might come to an end now.'",
"The error on the website was first spotted this morning at around 10am EST, with a number of eagle-eyed travelers taking to Twitter to spread the word about the glitch which saw travelers offered return, first class flights from London to New York for just $74.",
"The round-trip first class tickets from Heathrow to Newark, just outside of New York City, were snatched up by lucky holidaymakers for just 491 Danish krone due to an apparent error on the site.",
"By registering as a customer in Denmark, holidaymakers could snap up the deal, which would normally set them back between $5,618 and $6,778.",
"Bargain! The unbelievable fare totaled 491 Danish krone, which comes to $74 .",
"It is unclear how the deal happened and it appears United quickly made changes to prevent anyone else from purchasing the cheap tickets.",
"One customer who snapped up the bargain fare said she simply logged on to United.com and changed her country status to Denmark.",
"She then chose her dates and made sure to select business class or first class from the drop down menu.",
"Then, using a credit card without a foreign transaction fee, the purchase was completed and a confirmation email sent, although the customer did say she left her country as 'Denmark' when filling out her postal address.",
"Despite the low costs, two customers reported finding 'miscellaneous' charges from the airline on their debit or credit card statements - which they believed to be an additional booking fee of $40 per ticket - meaning the total price of their tickets was closer to $100 each.",
"A second customer secured first class transatlantic flights for a total of 1,356DKK - around $206 or £135 .",
"Both customers said that they were happy to pay the additional amount however, as the price still worked out much cheaper than a full price first class ticket.",
"Daily Mail Online attempted to secure the same deal at approximately 16:20 GMT, but found that selecting Denmark from the country drop down menu was no longer an option.",
"The country option was then turned back to the original country of origin, which was in this case the United Kingdom.",
"In an earlier statement provided to MailOnline Travel, a spokesperson for the company said: 'United has temporarily suspended sales from its Denmark website because a third-party software provider applied an incorrect exchange rate and was misquoting the airline’s properly filed fares.",
"'This error in the application of the exchange rate primarily impacted individuals who live outside of Denmark and who were not traveling to or from Denmark but were attempting to book tickets using United’s Denmark site.'"

"Chelsea star Branislav Ivanovic found himself at the centre of a storm on Wednesday night that had people questioning whether he had bitten Everton’s James McCarthy.",
"Moments before Willian grabbed a last-minute winner to maintain Chelsea’s seven-point lead at the top of the Premier League, Ivanovic got embroiled in a melee between both sets of players.",
"Ivanovic first grabbed McCarthy around the throat, nearly throttling him, before he aimed a head-butt at the Everton midfielder.",
"VIDEO Scroll down for Does Branislav Ivanovic bite down on James McCarthy's shoulder?",
"Branislav Ivanovic aggressively wraps his arm around Everton midfielder James McCarthy .",
"Ivanovic (third right) appears to aim a headbutt in the direction of McCarthy .",
"McCarthy looks round as Ivanovic grapples him with both arms as tempers fray at Stamford Bridge .",
"The incident took place during a melee in the closing stages of Chelsea's 1-0 win against Everton .",
"Branislav Ivanovic was the innocent victim on the day Luis Suarez rocked the football world by whipping up English football’s biggest biting storm.",
"Suarez apologised for his ‘inexcusable behaviour’ days after biting Ivanovic in the second half of Liverpool’s 2-2 draw against Chelsea at Anfield in April 2013.",
"It did not spare the Uruguayan a 10-game ban and he committed another biting offence in the 2014 World Cup on Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini.",
"That led to a four-month ban from any football-related activity, plus nine international matches, for Suarez and saw him transferred to Barcelona for £80million.",
"Video footage showed Ivanovic, himself the victim of a Luis Suarez bite two years ago, appearing to bite McCarthy.",
"Sources close to McCarthy later said that he did feel teeth on his shoulder, though he did not believe it to be a bite.",
"Other Everton players said they saw Ivanovic press his head into McCarthy and appear to catch his teeth on his shoulder.",
"Chelsea sources insisted that Ivanovic denied biting McCarthy.",
"But the defender could still face a retrospective three-match ban, which would rule him out of the Capital One Cup final, over the incident if referee Jon Moss claims he did not see the full extent of it.",
"FA disciplinary chiefs are almost certain to investigate the altercation on Thursday morning.",
"Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho stormed out of a BBC interview when asked about the Ivanovic incident and when questioned by BT Sport, he replied: ‘Don’t make me laugh, don’t make me laugh.’ In the press conference, Mourinho threatened another walk-out, saying: ‘I’m concerned with my reaction because one more question (about this) and I will leave.’ Mourinho was critical of Everton, who had Gareth Barry sent off, adding: ‘They made lots of fouls, what you would call intelligent fouls, but if the referee follows the rule it’s yellow card after yellow card and then inevitably you get a red card — which they eventually did.’ Ivanovic looks towards McCarthy as the melee takes place in the background .",
"Ivanovic throws his head towards McCarthy but escaped punishment on the night at Stamford Bridge .",
"Tempers flare towards the end of the match as players from both sides confront each other .",
"Ivanovic also clashes with Everton's John Stones in the closing stages of the Premier League match .",
"Ivanovic (left) is embraced by Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho after the final whistle on Wednesday .",
"Everton manager Roberto Martinez was in no doubt that Ivanovic should have seen red over the alleged butt.",
"To rub salt into Martinez’s wounds, Ivanovic played a crucial part in Willian’s late winner.",
"‘If you look at the images Ivanovic’s behaviour is wrong,’ said Martinez.",
"‘He grabs him around the neck in a forceful manner then puts his head against him when James McCarthy didn’t react, and if you want to be on top of the laws that’s a red card.’ Martin Keown – I think he's just about going to get away with this, there's not enough in it in terms of making contact with his head.",
"He'll get away with it for me. Steve McManaman: I don’t think it was worth a red card, Jon Moss, the referee didn't see the incident - it's up to the law makers now.",
"Robbie Savage: I've seen a lot worse but can you grab someone around the throat and do that?",
"If the referee sees the movement towards McCarthy it's a red for me.",
"Michael Owen: It’s a yellow for me - nothing more.",
"Phil Neville: It's not clear cut enough for the FA to ban him for three games, for me.",
"It’s not good what’s he done granted, but I don’t think the FA will take action."

"Jupiter’s ‘Great Red Spot’ has been turned white in a stunning new infrared image of our solar system’s largest storm.",
"The Jovian storm is believed to have a lifetime of 300 to 400 years and has winds screaming at hundreds of miles per hour.",
"It usually appears as a deep red oval surrounded by swirling layers of white, yellow, orange, but this latest image casts it in a new light.",
"The Jovian storm is believed to have a lifetime of 300 to 400 years .",
"A gigantic storm twice as big as Earth, the spot was first observed 300 years ago.",
"Like a hurricane on Earth, the center is relatively calm, but farther out, the winds scream at 425mph (680km/h).",
"The spot, whose main cloud layer is likely ammonia, appears to be an area of upwelling, in which clouds form from below.",
"The spot is technically an anticyclone - a cyclones whirling in the other direction.",
"Infrared images such as this can cut through the gas and dust captured in visible light photos .",
"The image, released by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, also shows Jupiter’s moon, Ganymede in the upper right appearing as three coloured dots.",
"The effect is due to the fact Ganymede moved during the time required to take the three separate colour images.",
"The image was taken by a camera mounted on the Subaru Telescope, a 27ft (8.2 metre) instrument located atop Mauna Kea volcano on Hawaii's Big Island.",
"The Great Red Spot seen in this image has baffled astronomers for years, and the cause of its has remained a mystery.",
"One theory put forward in November is that the red spot is in fact, sunburn.",
"Nasa said it believes the spot is likely a product of simple chemicals being broken apart by sunlight in the planet's upper atmosphere.",
"The results contradict the other leading theory for the origin of the spot's striking colour - that the reddish chemicals come from beneath Jupiter's clouds.",
"The image follows another stunning shot of the gas giant revealed last week by Nasa.",
"The 'spot' is a product of simple chemicals being broken apart by sunlight in the planet's upper atmosphere .",

"Jupiter is composed almost entirely of hydrogen and helium, with just a sprinkling of other elements.",
"Scientists are interested in understanding what combinations of elements are responsible for the hues seen in Jupiter's clouds, as this would provide insights into the giant planet's make-up.",

"Jawaid Ishaq, 72, who lives in Scunthorpe but is originally from Kuwait, is accused of stealing £124,000 from sick friend Ali Salem Sultan .",
"A serving Labour councillor and former town mayor who helped to organise the Queen's first visit to a UK mosque has gone on trial accused of fraud and theft.",
"Jawaid Ishaq, 72, originally from Kuwait, moved to this country in 1970 and went on to become town mayor of Scuthorpe, deputy chairman of Humberside Police, and was awarded an MBE.",
"But today he was accused of stealing £124,000 from a sick and elderly friend as part of a fraud lasting for 15 years.",
"Sheffield Crown Court was told that Ishaq began his deception in 1997 when Ali Salem Sultan, a close friend of his who used to go to his shop and attended mosque with him, retired.",
"Mr Sultan, who was then 72 but who has since died, wanted to return to his native country of Yemen where his wife and children lived.",
"However, he owned several assets in Scunthorpe, including two rental properties, which he wanted Ishaq to look after.",
"On July 7 the former steelworks painter drew up a legal power of attorney which granted Ishaq the power to collect rent on the properties and maintain them.",
"This paper clearly stated it applied to 'no other assets whatsoever', but some time later Ishaq is alleged to have created a handwritten forgery.",
"This second document gave him access to all of Mr Sultan's stocks bank accounts, and pension.",
"Craig Hassall, prosecuting, said Ishaq then used the forged document to sell all of Mr Sultan's shares, and withdraw his pension in cash every week.",
"Meanwhile, in Yemen, Mr Sultan became aware of the deception in 2001 after he had trouble accessing his Halifax bank account, Mr Hassall said.",
"Despite falling gravely ill and having to have his leg amputated, Mr Sultan began writing letters to the bank, urging them to give him control of his accounts back, it was claimed.",
"However the jury heard that back in Britain Ishaq had instructed the bank to ignore any letters being sent from Mr Sultan in Yemen.",
"Mr Hassall said: 'His attempts to have his pension paid into his bank account in Yemen were thwarted by the defendant.",
"'Pension payments were paid in to a new account and were being withdrawn by the defendant in cash on a regular basis.'",
"Eventually Mr Sultan tried to draw up a new power of attorney with his son, who lives in New York, but this had little or no effect, Mr Hassall added.",
"Ishaq has been a Labour councillor since 1983, served as mayor of Scunthorpe in 2008, was deputy chairman of Humberside Police, and organised the Queen's first visit to a UK mosque (pictured, Ishaq third left) Ishaq became a Labour councillor in 1983 in Scunthorpe while the fraud was going on, then served as chairman of the South Humber Racial Equality Council and held the position of former deputy chairman of Humberside Police Authority.",
"He was also awarded an MBE in 2000 for services to community relations, and is still serving as a councillor on North Lincolnshire Council.",
"Mr Hassall said: 'Clearly he was and still is a prominent and influential person in the community as well as the Muslim community in North Lincolnshire.",

"David Cameron was under renewed pressure last night to tackle Barack Obama over America’s failure to release Guantanamo inmate Shaker Aamer.",
"In a bitter blow to campaigners fighting for the 48-year-old, it emerged that the US Defence Secretary has admitted that the last British resident at the notorious military camp is no nearer to freedom.",
"Last month the US President promised to ‘prioritise’ the father-of-four’s case after the Prime Minister raised his plight during talks at the White House.",
"Scroll down for video .",
"Shaker Aamer, pictured, is being held by US authorities in Guantanamo Bay despite being cleared for release .",
"Prime Minister David Cameron has been urged to press US authorities for Mr Aamer's release .",
"But almost a month on, no action has been taken – prompting accusations Mr Obama has fobbed off Mr Cameron with ‘weasel words’, while putting Downing Street under pressure to step up its demands.",
"Joanne MacInnes, co-ordinator of the We Stand For Shaker campaign, said: ‘David Cameron must do more to insist that the US releases Shaker.",
"‘If he really cared at all, he would have secured Shaker’s freedom a long time ago.",
"‘It inevitably raises questions about whether Britain is not doing enough because it has actually got something to hide.’ US Defence Secretary Chuck Hagel, who must give the final authority to transfer captives from the facility in Cuba, has confirmed Mr Aamer’s file had still not crossed his desk.",
"Challenged on whether he was still willing to sign off the release of Guantanamo inmates, he dismayed Mr Aamer’s supporters by telling reporters recently he had nothing pending in his in-tray.",
"Responding to claims he had one file ‘on his desk’, he said: ‘I don’t know about one still on my desk, unless it’s under my desk.",
"As far as I know, I have made a decision on everything that is ready to be made a decision on.’ US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, pictured, said he has not seen Mr Aamer's file to sign his release .",
"On Saturday, Mr Aamer, who lived in South London with his wife and four children, will have been held in Guantanamo for exactly 13 years without charge or trial.",
"He has twice been cleared for release – first by the Bush administration in 2007 and again by President Obama in 2009.",
"Clive Stafford Smith, the detainee’s lawyer and director of human rights charity Reprieve, said: ‘The admission that Shaker’s case isn’t even on Chuck Hagel’s desk suggests that Obama’s claims to be prioritising it may be little more than weasel words.",
"‘If the US government wanted to prioritise invading a country, it could be done in a week.",
"So sending one man home to his family in London cannot be too much to ask.",
"‘Coming just days after David Cameron personally requested that Shaker be returned home to Britain, it doesn’t say much for the state of the so-called special relationship.’ Mr Stafford Smith added: ‘The suspicion must be that the US fears he will reveal yet more about its shameful torture programme if he is ever allowed to speak freely.’ Tory MP David Davis said: ‘It is simply not good enough for the US Defence Secretary to ignore decisions made by two US presidents.",
"He should be released without further ado.’ The US administration has said it is ‘aggressively pursuing the transfer’ of Guantanamo’s remaining inmates.",
"The number has plunged to 122 from a peak of 650, and Mr Obama has vowed to close the detention camp before the end of his term in office.",
"Saudi-born Mr Aamer moved to London almost 20 years ago and married, securing leave to remain in Britain.",
"In 2001, he was detained in Kabul after going to Afghanistan to carry out peaceful voluntary work for an Islamic charity, his representatives claim.",
"His supporters allege he was then captured by bounty hunters, handed to the US military for $5,000 and tortured at a secret ‘black site’ prison – effectively a dungeon.",
"He was then sent to Guantanamo Bay in February 2002."

"But Google boss Larry Page ordered the extravagant plans to be ripped up because they were too boring.",
"Google boss Larry Page has ordered extravagant plans for his company's new London offices to be scrapped .",
"The company's headquarters in California is known for its bike paths and recreational facilities (pictured) Mr Page, who co-founded the American technology giant, ordered the UK team to go back to the drawing board and come up with a building worthy of existing for 100 years.",
"Google originally hoped that the £1bn development would be ready in 2016, but that deadline is now looking more than a little ambitious.",
"Building work on the site behind Kings Cross has not started, putting the project at least a year behind schedule.",
"From the outside, the shelved plans looked like an office block that might have belonged to any wealthy company.",
"Up to 4,500 staff would have been housed in a glassy, 11-storey, structure, occupying a narrow, wedge-shaped strip of land behind Kings Cross station.",
"The building’s most distinguishing features were its spacious interiors and extensive facilities.",
"Allford Hall Monaghan Morris, the architecture firm which was primarily responsible for the plans, said it would be ‘organised around a looped three-dimensional promenade’, and ‘sit upon a retail plinth punctuated by three generous light-filled halls’.",
"Cycling ramps, terraces and a large roof garden were supposed to create an ‘easy and enjoyable journey that encourages encounter’.",
"‘The idea is that the people who are in the building…need to be attracted to the actual building,’ architect Simon Allford said, shortly after the blueprint was unveiled.",
"Camden Council gave its blessing to the project by granting it planning permission, but it was not good enough to please the powers that be at Google’s global headquarters.",
"Mr Page scrapped the design, and ordered the team to come up with a new, more ‘Googly’ building, whose exterior lived up to its zany interior.",

"As we raise our ambitions on what we can achieve in developing our own building, this will inevitably take some additional time.",

"Meanwhile, Google’s offices in London’s Victoria includes a room stocked with musical instruments, like a teenage boy’s fantasy bedroom.",
"The extraordinary campuses are designed using data about staff movements at work, helping to create an environment which works them harder, and makes many employees reluctant to leave.",
"However, Google has always tended to refit existing offices, instead of designing its own building.",

"Yazidis, whose ancient religion has elements of Zoroastrianism, Christianity and Islam, suffered grievously after ISIS' rapid offensive last year.",

"Displaced: Hundreds of Yazidids were killed and thousands captured, enslaved and raped by the Sunni Muslim militants, who consider the group devil worshippers.",
"The rest, including these children, have had to relocate to one of the increasing number of camps for internally displaced people in Iraq .",
"Yazidis returning to their homes in Sinjar are uncovering one mass grave after another in the area - evidence of ISIS rule there from last August until its fighters were driven out late last year.",
"Now some Yazidis are striking back.",
"More than a dozen Sunni Arab residents have told journalists that armed groups of Yazidis raided four of their villages in Sinjar two weeks ago, killing at least 21 people.",
"A further 17 went missing.",
"'It was an act of revenge by the Yazidis,' said 41-year-old Dhafer Ali Hussein from Sibaya, one of the affected villages.",
"'The aim is to expel Arabs from the area so that only Yazidis remain: they want to change the map.'",
"The identity of the Yazidi assailants is unclear because there are several competing forces fighting ISIS in Sinjar, with them all blaming each other for the raids..",
"But what is certain is that the reprisals expose how ISIS; incursion created divisions between communities that had coexisted for decades, turning one village against another and making enemies of former friends.",
"They also show the risk of similar violence when other groups displaced by ISIS, such as Shi'ite Turkmen and Shabak, Christians and Kakais, are able to return home.",
"Base: Members of the minority Yazidi sect are seen at one of their temporary camps on Mount Sinjar .",
"A displaced girl from the Yazidi community is seen at Dawodiya camp for internally displaced people in Iraq .",
"Amid ISIS' brutal rape and slaughter of the Yazidis, those who could fled in the summer heat in an exodus that prompted U.S.-led airstrikes against the jihadists in both Iraq and Syria.",
"Over the past week, the remains of more than 40 Yazidis who had been unable to leave before the arrival of ISIS were discovered in two bloodstained pits in northwest Iraq.",
"Residents of Sibaya, now staying in another village about 28 miles away, say they helped Yazidis escape in August and stashed away their belongings for safekeeping, even though the jihadis punished those who were found doing so.",
"But Yazidis from the nearby Gohbal settlement say Arabs in the surrounding villages sided with ISIS looting their possessions and actively participating in what they call attempted genocide.",
"Sunni residents admitted several men from Sibaya had joined the militants but said they were killed or fled to Syria when Kurdish peshmerga forces drove Islamic State from the area in December.",
"After regaining control, the peshmerga confiscated weapons from Arab villagers, who began to receive threats from Yazidis, culminating in the attack on Sibaya and Chiri on January 25.",
"The following day, Yazidi gunmen plundered and torched the nearby Arab villages of Khazuga and Sayer, whose residents had already fled.",
"Peshmerga intervened to prevent further attacks.",
"Members of the Yazidi minority search for clues that might lead them to missing relatives in the remains of people killed by ISIS a day after Kurdish forces discovered a mass grave near the Iraqi village of Sinuni .",
"Grim task: Kurdish forces found the remains of about 25 men, women and children of the Yazidi minority killed by the Islamic State in the grave while searching for explosives left behind by the terror group .",
"Most of Sibaya's 1,000 residents were sleeping when gunshots signalled the arrival of a military convoy flying the Kurdish flag.",
"At first, they thought peshmerga or Kurdish secret police known as Asayish, both of which recruit local Yazidis, were conducting a routine inspection.",
"Two Yazidis, one in military uniform, came to 31-year old Nawaf Ahmed's house and ordered him to hand over his car keys and identification.",
"'Who does that belong to?' asked the one in uniform, pointing at an electricity generator, which Ahmed explained had been entrusted to him by a Yazidi friend.",
"'You are all Islamic State,' said the other, loading the generator into Ahmed's car and driving off with it.",
"Dozens of civilian cars began to arrive from the direction of Gohbal and men, whom the Arab villagers identified as local Yazidis helped themselves to household appliances, vehicles and livestock.",
"Women said the assailants, dressed in military and civilian clothing, pulled rings off their fingers and stole valuables from their pockets.",
"Many people fled, some hiding in a nearby valley.",
"Those who stayed said they saw the men spread out through Sibaya and pour petrol from jerry cans before setting fire to the village, incinerating several elderly people in their homes.",
"Horror: Over the past week, the remains of more than 40 Yazidis who had been unable to leave before the arrival of ISIS were discovered in two bloodstained pits in northwest Iraq .",
"Searching for answers they don't want to find: Members of the Yazidi sect sift through the skeletal remains .",
"A skull is seen resting on the ground a day after at a mass grave containing the remains of members of the Yazidi community killed by ISIS is uncovered .",
"Kheder Ahmed, a 35-year-old shepherd with mental disabilities, was tending his flock on the outskirts of Sibaya when a car sped up to him.",
"His elder brother, Idrees, watched from a distance as a man got out of the vehicle and shot Kheder before making off with his sheep.",
"Idrees later took Kheder to hospital in the Kurdish city of Duhok, where he lay last week with a bullet wound to his right side.",
"On the same ward were six other villagers wounded in the attack, including 11-year-old Raddad, who had been shot twice.",
"'It was like Judgement Day had arrived,' Raddad's father said.",
"As Sibaya burned, the gunmen moved on to Chiri, 2 km to the south, where 60-year-old Abdullah Muhammed watched smoke rising from the neighbouring village.",
"One of the militants thrust a machine gun barrel in Muhammed's chest and ordered him out.",
"'Where should I go?' Muhammad recalled asking.",
"'Go to hell!' was the reply. 'We are the Yazidi state!'",
"Muhammad said he had been spared because one of the assailants knew him personally and allowed him to escape.",
"Jomaa Marii was less fortunate: he was shot dead in front of his wife.",
"'I saw it with my own eyes,' she said.",
"Once night fell and the gunmen withdrew, residents of both villages returned to retrieve the dead, protected by peshmerga.",
"Of the 10 corpses recovered from Sibaya, three were old women, residents told Reuters.",
"Four bodies had been burned, one belonging to a community elder bound to a chair.",
"Eleven corpses were found in Chiri.",
"A member of the Yazidi minority searches in a wallet for clues to the identity of the victims .",
"ISIS spearheaded a June offensive that began in the northern province of Nineveh, where this mass grave was discovered, and overran large areas north and west of the Iraqi capital .",
"Slaughtered: ISIS carried out a campaign of killings, kidnappings and enslavement against Yazidi Kurds living in the area that the UN termed an 'attempt to commit genocide' The villagers accused prominent Yazidi fighter Qassem Shesho of involvement in the attacks.",
"Shesho, who is close to the dominant Kurdistan Democratic Party, confirmed he had been in Sibaya and Chiri that day, but denied his men were responsible.",
"'Our traditions do not allow for that kind of behaviour,' he said, blaming 'extremists' serving a foreign agenda - a reference to the rival Kurdistan Workers' Party and its Syrian affiliate, which are fighting in Sinjar and have formed a Yazidi militia there.",
"The PKK says it had nothing to do with it.",
"Yazidi civilians took up arms alongside them during a months-long siege of Mount Sinjar by ISIS last year.",
"Kurdish peshmerga and Asayish officers are also present in the area.",
"Arabs and Yazidis agree Sinjar will never be the same as it was before Islamic State came, when they were friends and farmed together.",
"Many Yazidis no longer trust the peshmerga to defend them, while the newly displaced Arabs, all from the Juhaish tribe, said they would return to their villages only if Kurdish forces physically separated them.",
"Since the attack on Chiri and Sibaya, two Yazidis have been killed in Sinjar, in what some believe was an Arab reprisal.",
"Others said it was an internal Yazidi feud.",
"'For every action there is a reaction,' said an Arab man from Sinjar. 'This is not over'."

"Books shortlisted for the prize include ‘Murder Most Unladylike’ by Robin Stevens, which stars a pair of boarding school teens investigating the murder of their teacher, and ‘Smart’ by Kim Slater which follows a misfit teen investigating the death of a homeless man.",
"Melissa Cox, head of children’s buying at Waterstones, said: ‘Crime fiction is a perennial favourite on adults’ bookshelves, but the resurgence of children’s mystery books recently is striking.",
"‘Enid Blyton is a classic example of a children’s mystery author and her storytelling has clearly been an influence on a couple of the authors we have shortlisted.",
"Old favourites like The Famous Five (pictured are the cast from the 1995 TV version) are informing contemporary successful children's books .",
"‘The trend harks back to more traditional storytelling compared to some of the other stuff we have seen lately like funny fiction for younger readers or dystopian and vampire fiction for teens.",
"‘The sorts of books that are easy to sell are one that parents deem, not necessarily a ‘safe’ read, but as something they would have read in their own childhood.",

"She said the novel, set in a boarding school, is a fresh, modern take on two classic children’s genres.",
"She said: ‘It takes the traditional murder mystery story in the style of Agatha Christie and combines it with the Enid Blyton-style boarding school stories like Mallory Towers.",
"'It has a nostalgic appeal to people who grew up reading those types of novels.",
"‘Despite that, it doesn’t feel like an old-fashioned story.",
"It is really fresh and modern and looks at themes like racism, same-sex relationships and bullying.",
"'It’s also very funny, with lots of dry humour.’ The winner of the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize will be announced on March 26.",

"Myleene Klass made the headlines recently for complaining about the the cost of birthday presents for pupils at her daughters' school.",
"But it seems the television presenter isn't alone - new research shows that children’s parties are fast becoming an expensive headache for many Brits, with parents under heavy pressure at the school gates to cough up for 'cheeky' gifts.",
"In a new survey, one in four mothers and fathers admit they have felt forced by fellow parents to spend more than they felt necessary on birthday presents.",
"Scroll down for video .",
"Many parents actually agree with singer Myleene Klass, who last week said she felt under pressure at the school gates to cough up for 'cheeky' presents for other people's children .",
"The findings suggest that many parents share the negative view of Myleene about being asked to donate money towards a class collection for birthday gifts.",
"One in eight of those polled said they had been asked to contribute towards a bigger present for a child, and of these, the majority (53 per cent) thought the request had been cheeky and that the child should be happy with what they received.",
"Only a quarter of those questioned (28 per cent) said they were happy to contribute to a group present if it meant the youngster got what they wanted.",
"In terms of cost, more than a third were asked to contribute less than £10, while a further 42 per cent could choose how much to give.",
"Classic FM presenter Klass hit the headlines last week after posting two emails she received 'from some school mums' detailing the parents’ preferences for 'a class gift for their daughters this year' - a desk and a Kindle.",
"The group email suggested a donation of £10 each, but added that there was no obligation to join in.",
"Classic FM presenter Klass hit the headlines last week after posting two emails received 'from some school mums' detailing the parents' preferences for 'a class gift for their daughters this year' Myleene posted the text of two emails she received from fellow parents, as well as her response .",
"In a tongue-in-cheek reply, the 36-year-old mother-of- two, who lives in north London, jokingly said her daughter Ava might like a unicorn, adding that money could be donated at fictitious site www.getwhatyouregivenandendthismadness.com.",
"The singer later confirmed that the emails were a year old and she also admitted that there had been some hard feelings in the playground following the publicity.",
"But she maintained she was trying to convey a serious message and it was her intention to remind parents, who are under pressure to do the best for their children, of what birthdays should be about.",
"The findings from the new research into birthday presents show that Myleene's school was towards the top end of the scale when it came to financial contributions.",
"Around two-thirds of parents spend between £5-£10 on a gift to take to a child’s party, with a similar proportion saying they think this is the appropriate amount.",
"Only a fifth (23 per cent) spend £10 or more, and a similar proportion (22 per cent) think it is appropriate to do so.",
"Myleene, pictured, right, with her two young daughters, maintained she was trying to convey a serious message and it was her intention to remind parents, who are under pressure to do the best for their children, of what birthdays should be about .",
"The poll also found that while the vast majority of parents (85 per cent) buy a new gift to take to a party, more than one in four (27 per cent) have given cash, and 28 per cent have recycled a birthday present.",
"More than a third (35 per cent) have asked what the child wanted and then bought it.",
"Cathy Ranson, editor-in-chief of Netmums, who commissioned the survey for the Press Association, said: 'Putting on a birthday party for youngsters should be child’s play - but it seems to bring out the worst in some parents.",
"'Over the last decade we’ve seen parties grow from simple affairs focused on the child to excuses for one-upmanship with ever more lavish venues and expensive gifts crammed into party bags.",
"'A recent study by Netmums found 16 per cent of parents now pay out more than £300 for a single party, with girls between the ages of two and four given the most pricey events.",
"'Shockingly, some parents admitted giving opulent gifts in party bags including jewellery, cameras, video games, phones, iPods and even tablets.",
"'While this may make the parents feel pleased with themselves, is it really what their kids want?'",
"A recent study by Netmums found 16 per cent of parents now fork out more than £300 for a single party .",
"She continued: 'Parties are about the people who go, not where they are held.",
"'After the last crumb of cake is eaten and final present unwrapped, children’s happy memories are made of who they played with, not how much their mum and dad spent on the day.'",
"It is not the first time that children’s parties have come under the spotlight recently.",
"Last month, Derek Nash from Torpoint, Cornwall criticised a mother who sent him an invoice for failing to give notice that his son Alex would not be attending her child’s birthday party.",
"After his son did not go to the event, the birthday boy’s mother sent him an invoice for £15.95, saying that Mr Nash had left her out of pocket.",
"Mr Nash said he did not have contact details for the boy’s mother, but she said in a statement that all details had been on the party invite."

"Two ‘petite’ firearms officers are set to receive a pay-out of £70,000 after winning a sex discrimination case over the size of their big guns.",
"Victoria Wheatley and Rachael Giles said their weapons were too big for their small hands and as a result they could not reach the trigger, a tribunal has heard.",
"The two women struggled with the grip of the pistols they were using – a Glock 17 – and they also claimed their heads and legs were too small for their protective gear.",
"The case, held at the Central London Employment Tribunal last week, found the Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) guilty of discrimination against both officers in the provision of suitable firearms and safety equipment.",
"It is understood the officers are set to receive £35,000 each after winning the case against the force – but there is expected to be an appeal.",

"A cycle of annual training shoots tests their ability which they must undertake as part of their job.",
"Mr Bansel said: ‘Continued failure at these shoot days results in an unsatisfactory assessment, which could lead to the officer being dismissed.’ Miss Wheatley, 39, and Miss Giles, 32, also said there were other problems during the tests, including protection equipment which did not fit.",
"They argued the helmets and kneepads were too large for their legs and heads which hindered their performance.",
"They also argued they were too short for a wooden barricade, which was used as a resting place for the firearm.",
"Protection: Miss Wheatley worked with an armed unit which protects the Sellafield nuclear plant in Cumbria .",

"It was said the women raised their concerns on ‘a regular basis’ but they were often dismissed, with no ‘adequate consideration’.",
"The CNC said it was planning to appeal the tribunal decision.",
"A spokesman said: ‘The judgement has been passed and the CNC has lost on the grounds of indirect sex discrimination, however any claims of victimisation were unanimously dismissed.",
"‘As a result of what was discussed in this case, the CNC can also state it will be conducting an equality impact assessment.",
"‘This is to ensure that the CNC remains committed to providing the right training and equipment, together with a commitment to equal opportunities.’ Miss Wheatley and Miss Giles were members of the Civil Nuclear Police Federation, which supported the claim.",
"A spokesman for the federation said the officers were expecting to receive a pay-out of £35,000 each subject to an appeal and remained in their current roles.",
"They said the pay-out was on the basis of sex discrimination – which included their reputational damage as they received lower marks on their tests as a result.",
"Work: Meanwhile, Miss Giles, 32, worked at the Chapelcross nuclear site near Annan in Scotland (file picture) The spokesman added: ‘It was all part and parcel of it – the damage to their reputations because if they were scoring less on these proficiency tests while other colleagues were more suited to the equipment, they were in a lesser position.’ The spokesman said they may not receive the pay-out for months due to the appeal.",
"No further details of the officers could be released due to the fact the case was still on-going.",
"After the judgement, chief executive of the federation, Nigel Dennis, said he was pleased with the outcome, adding he hoped the constabulary would remove the ‘disadvantage’ and ensure all officers had a fair opportunity.",
"In December last year it emerged a police community support officer who injured her knee while investigating a burglary was awarded £4,000 in compensation.",
"Pauline Harrison, 53, was responding to a 999 call reporting a break-in at a derelict school when she fell over a 3ft-high wooden fence.",
"In April last year a policeman was paid £8,000 compensation after being bitten by fleas while at work.",
"The extraordinary injury claim was made after colleagues complained that their police station in Birmingham had become infested with the insects.",
"It was one of a number of workplace injury claims paid by West Midlands Police which had spent £900,000 settling cases made by more than 50 policemen in three years.",
"And WPC Kelly Jones triggered public outrage and criticism from her own chief constable last year for suing a burglary victim for £50,000 after tripping over a kerb.",
"Other claims include a police officer awarded £16,610 in compensation after he fell over a pile of blankets while chasing a suspect."

"Plans: Iain Duncan Smith, Work and Pensions Secretary, believes a new 'right-to-own' scheme would attract more 'C2 voters' from the skilled working classes, providing a timely election boost .",
"Millions of working families would be given the chance to own their own homes in radical Conservative plans to extend Margaret Thatcher’s flagship housing policy.",
"The right-to-buy would be extended to up to 2.5million housing association tenants – transforming the lives of many.",
"Some could even be rewarded for holding down a job for a year or more by simply being handed a stake in their properties.",
"Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith is understood to be pushing both ideas – designed to echo Lady Thatcher’s defining right-to-buy policy for council house tenants – for inclusion in the Tory election manifesto.",
"A senior Government source said this was being ‘seriously considered’.",
"Introduced in 1980, the right-to-buy led to more than 1.5million homes being sold off at discounted rates.",
"Mr Duncan Smith believes that a new ‘right-to-own’ would attract more ‘C2 voters’ – the skilled working classes who helped to deliver Lady Thatcher’s three election victories.",
"As well as promoting home ownership and rewarding work, he argues that the scheme would reduce the vast housing benefit bill.",
"Currently, taxpayers subsidise the housing costs of many unemployed and lower-paid workers who live in housing association properties.",
"Housing associations are non-profit making private bodies that provide low-cost social housing.",
"Regulated by the state, they receive public funding.",
"Right-to-buy rules allow most council tenants to buy their homes at a discount, but the rules do not apply to housing associations.",
"They only qualify for limited discounts and can only buy a property that has been acquired by an association since 1997.",
"Discounts vary between areas, but range from £9,000 to £16,000.",
"Council house tenants, by contrast, can get discounts of up to £77,000 across England and £102,700 in London.",
"The Centre for Social Justice, the think tank set up by Mr Duncan Smith in opposition, has suggested housing association tenants should be offered discounts of up to 30 per cent of a property’s value.",
"Former Tory leadership contender David Davis and former Labour welfare minister Frank Field have also backed new rights for tenants to buy their homes.",
"Still more radical would be rewarding those with the best employment records with free stakes in their homes.",
"Mr Duncan Smith is understood to want to consider the idea for those in work for a year or more.",
"The association would retain a 40 per cent stake, ensuring taxpayers gain from an increase in house prices, while the owners would have the remaining 60 per cent.",
"Money raised when the property was sold would be ploughed back into more social housebuilding, which would be spread out rather than concentrated on estates.",
"Flagship policy: Former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher introduced the 'right-to-buy' scheme in 1980, which led to more than 1.5million homes being sold off at discounted rates .",
"The move is being supported by the Conservatives’ election campaign chief Lynton Crosby, according to Government sources.",
"Some in Downing Street are said to be cautious about Mr Duncan Smith’s proposals.",
"There are fears that handing people in social housing a stake in their homes might anger voters renting in the private sector, with little hope of affording to buy.",
"However, the Government has already launched its Help to Buy scheme, which offers first-time buyers support in getting on to the property ladder.",
"Kate Davies, chief executive of Notting Hill Housing, said: ‘It would be important to ensure that housing associations were able to replenish housing stock.’ A Tory spokesman said: ‘We will set out our manifesto policies at the appropriate time.",
"No decisions have been taken.’ Enabling housing association tenants to buy their homes would be likely to require major changes to the 1996 Housing Act so that associations are forced to sell at the discounts set by government.",
"The Coalition has already increased right-to-buy discounts for council homes, meaning more are moving into the private sector.",
"But housing associations, which date back to the 19th century, have gradually replaced councils as the main providers of social housing.",
"They are autonomous, not-for-profit bodies backed by public money and loans from the private sector.",
"David Orr of the National Housing Federation, which represents Britain’s non-profit housing associations, said: ‘We fully support the aspiration of homeownership, but not at the expense of the 1.7million people currently waiting for desperately needed social housing.",
"‘Selling off homes at a price that leaves very little to replace them does not make sense.’ He said the suggestion that housing association tenants might own their homes after a year of work was ‘so preposterous, it cannot be considered a serious solution to our housing crisis’."

"Police can make 'sinister associations' when dealing with black men and American police are facing a 'crossroads' in race relations, the director of the FBI has warned.",
"James Comey made an unprecedented speech about policing and race issues at Georgetown University today - becoming the first director of the FBI to speak at length about the issue.",
"Mr Comey made the speech, called ‘Hard Truths: Law Enforcement and Race’, at a time when racial tensions with police in America are high, following the police shootings of Michael Brown in Ferguson in August and Eric Garner in New York.",
"Scroll down for video .",
"James Comey, director of the FBI, said American police face a 'crossroads' with race relations as he admitted that police officers who work in areas where street crime is committed may hold biases towards blacks .",
"Mr Coney admitted that officers had to acknowledge that ‘much of our history is not pretty’ and that they had to change.",
"He said police officers who work in neighborhoods where most street crime is committed by young black men may hold unconscious biases which means they can be tempted to take a 'mental shortcut' in dealing with suspicious situations.",
"'The two young black men on one side of the street look like so many others the officer has locked up,' he said.",
"'Two young white men on the other side of the street - even in the same clothes - do not.",
"The officer does not make the same sinister association about the two white guys, whether that officer is white or black.'",
"He acknowledged the shortfalls of police who may take particular approaches based on their past experience or if they are working in an area where black people make up the majority of perpetrators of crime.",
"'Something happens to people in law enforcement,' he added.",
"'Many of us develop different flavors of cynicism that can be hard to resist because they become shortcuts.",
"Something happens to people working in that environment...that mental shortcut becomes almost irresistible.’ Mr Comey said America is at a crossroads when it comes to race relations and law enforcement, and the 'hard truths' must be confronted.",
"During the unprecedented speech at Georgetown University Mr Comey acknowledged there were problems and that police officers could make 'sinister associations' with black people they encountered .",
"Protesters from Ferguson to New York, Washington and London clashed with police following the fatal shooting of black teenager Michael Brown - creating racial tensions between officials and communities .",
"He added: ‘All of us in law enforcement must be honest enough to acknowledge that much of our history is not pretty.",
"‘At many points in American history law enforcement has enforced the status quo, a status quo that was often brutally unfair to disfavoured groups’.",
"The director said it was also important to break a cycle that means often ethnic minorities in poor neighborhoods too often inherit a 'legacy of crime and prison,' a cycle he said must be broken to improve race relations with police.",
"The death of Michael Brown has seen protesters take to the streets across America .",
"However he said that racial bias was not endemic in the force and most officers were committed to doing the right thing.",
"He also said that citizens needed to do more and had to ‘give (police) the respect and space they need to make their job possible and that body cameras on officers was not the answer.",
"Mr Comey has been praised for tackling race when previous directors of the bureau have made limited comments.",
"Chuck Wexler, executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum, told the New York Times: 'Not to take anything away from the previous directors, but it was almost as though they thought, 'This is something we shouldn't weigh into.'''",
"The Bureau has a complicated history with black Americans dating back to the surveillance of Dr Martin Luther King during the civil rights era.",
"Racial tensions are once again high in America after a number of controversial police shootings which have sparked a national conversation about law enforcement.",
"Michael Brown was shot dead by white officer Darren Wilson in the St Louis, Missouri, suburb on August 9, last year.",
"The 18-year-old was not armed and there are disagreements about whether he held up his hands and cried 'don't shoot' before the gun was fired.",
"His death precipitated a number of protests in Ferguson, New York and as far away as London - aiming to raise awareness of racial bias.",
"In Berkeley, California, there was violence four nights in a row with police using tear gas against protesters .",
"Attorney General Eric Holder opened an FBI civil rights investigation but it is not expected to bring charges against Darren Wilson, the former officer who opened fire.",
"Comey is best-known for a 2004 standoff at the hospital bedside of Attorney General John Ashcroft over a no-warrant wiretapping program.",
"Comey rushed to the room of his bedridden boss to physically stop White House officials from trying to get Ashcroft to reauthorize the program.",
"He later described the evening as one of the most difficult of his life.",
"During the speech, Comey said he keeps on his desk a copy of the order John F Kennedy signed authorising the wiretapping of Dr King as a reminder of what not to do.",
"The director previously worked as a federal prosecutor who served for several years as the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York.",
"He the came to Washington after the September 11 attacks as deputy attorney general.",
"In recent years, he's been an executive at defense company Lockheed Martin, general counsel to a hedge fund, board member at HSBC Holdings and lecturer on national security law at Columbia Law School."

"'I'm not saying that little girls should necessarily watch me and want to do exactly what I do, but I hope that some of them can see my performance and say, \"That's something I didn't realize girls could do,\"' she said.",
"For me, that's the most important thing: empower someone to believe in themselves.'"

"A top parenting expert has warned mothers that being too possessive of their sons and not letting men be strong father figures can be detrimental to their boys' upbringing.",
"The frank advice comes from parenting expert Noël Janis-Norton in her new book Calmer, Easier, Happier Boys.",
"According to the parenting and behavioural specialist and former teacher, fathers have much greater influence than mothers in shaping boys into well-adjusted young men - but too often mothers find it hard to back off and let dad take control.",
"A top parenting expert has warned mothers that being too possessive over their sons and not allowing fathers to get enough of a look can be detrimental .",
"'Without a strong father-figure, (which could also be a step-father or grandfather), boys may struggle to learn how to express their emotions constructively, how to handle their physical strength and learn to respect others - and themselves,' Janis-Norton tells the MailOnline.",
"‘Mothers need to allow dads to be dads and to have their own relationship with their children - and in particular with their boys - without trying to micromanage,' she says.",
"The parenting expert, who has been credited by the likes of Helena Bonham-Carter turning her family life around, also warns mothers about being barking too many orders.",
"'A boy will lose respect for the mother who appears to bossing the father around – or criticising him,' she says.",
"So when Dad gets little Tommy dressed in the wrong clothes, feeds him the wrong breakfast and then starts a pillow fight should Mum just look on through gritted teeth?",
"'Yes - absolutely she should!'",
"says Janis-Norton.",
"'And the gritted teeth part comes because mums assume they know best - but actually none of us is perfect.",
"We’ve got weaknesses too.",
"'We’re not doing it right all the time.",
"So really we shouldn’t be judging the dads!'",
"Despite the title of her book, the Calmer, Easier, Happier Boys author, is at pains to point out that keeping calm is not always the goal.",
"In fact, she actively encourages play-fighting for boys .",
"Of course mums are usually more familiar with the routines: 'Even in families where both parents work long hours outside the home, children tend to spend more time with their mothers,' says Janis-Norton.",
"'That’s not a problem for a girl – but for a boy it is.",
"Because the genetically preprogrammed urge is for boys to copy their fathers.",
"And it’s hard for a boy to do that when he doesn’t spend enough time with Dad.'",
"In fact, she actively encourages play-fighting for boys - especially when it's with their father.",
"'Mums generally don’t have an interest in play fighting and they worry someone's going to get hurt, or feelings will get hurt, or clothes will get ripped or something will get damaged.",
"'But none of that is as important as boys getting their energy out and through play fighting they learn a lot about how to fight fair.",
"'They learn how to control themselves, they learn how not to be too rough - and they also learn how to make amends if it does go too far.'",
"By play fighting with Dad, boys can learn how to control themselves, how not to be too rough - and how to make amends if they have been too rough .",
"'Dads can teach boys all of that,' she says but does advise that play fighting that is likely to become manic or annoy others in the house is best taken outside.",
"Of course mothers are not the only ones that need to make an effort to encourage that father-son relationship to flourish.",
"Fathers needs to work at it too: .",
"'Because so many fathers are spending more hours at work and often have longer commutes their time at home may be taken up with household chores such as paying bills, mowing the lawn and doing repairs.",
"Noël Janis-Norton has written the new book using her tried-and-tested Calmer, Easier, Happier Parenting strategies .",
"'You can see that even a loving, conscientious father can end up not being a very good role-model.",
"'They may be reluctant to insist on good behaviour, to enforce rules and routines and to follow-through when rules are broken or routines drift.",
"'The less involved a father is, the less confident he will feel and the less confident he feels, the less involved he will want to be,' she warns.",
"Janis-Norton decided to write the book, which adapts her tried and tested Calmer, Easier, Happier Parenting strategies to focus on boy behaviour, after parents of boys kept asking the same questions.",
"'They were often frustrated exasperated and perplexed,' she says.",
"'Parents often complain that their boys are fidgety and easily distracted and socially immature.",
"Parents worry that their son isn’t fulfilling his academic potential.",
"'Another issue that concerns parents of boys is the tendency towards disrespect, defiance and aggression.",
"And parents don’t know what to do.'",
"The most important piece of advice Janis-Norton has for parents is to sop telling their children off.",
"It may not sound like a recipe for cooperative offspring, but according to Janis-Norton it is key: 'Telling off doesn’t work and motivate to improve,' she says.",
"'Thankfully there are strategies that can help parents get back in charge,' she says.",
"‘The strategies I teach parents will help boys to become more cooperative, more confident, more motivated, more self-reliant and more considerate.'",
"One such strategy is Descriptive Praise, describing what your child is doing right rather than what they're doing wrong.",
"‘Let’s imagine a family around the dinner table.",
"The little girl is eating with her knife and fork properly and using her napkin properly and sitting with legs in front of her – and waiting to swallow her food before she talks.",
"'The boy is doing all the opposite - plus he’s singing and talking too loudly and interrupting and maybe doing a deliberate burp.",
"Noël Janis-Norton's new book: Calmer, Easier, Happier Boys .",
"'So it’s very tempting to keep saying \"no\", \"don’t\", \"stop\".'",
"'Reprimands may - or may not - get you immediate cooperation, but in the long-term telling off and endless reminders make the behaviour worse – because when children keep hearing about what they’re doing wrong, they start to feel that’s who they are.",
"'So after a while they don’t even bother trying to improve their behaviour.",
"'In fact, boys often enjoy being able to wind up their parents by burping or making some kid of a vulgar joke.",
"'So I advise parents to focus most of their attention on the OK things that the boy is doing.",
"Notice and mention the tiny steps in the right direction.",
"'I’m not saying it’s easy to stay positive; it takes a lot of self-control.",
"But it’s worth practising this strategy, which is called Descriptive Praise, because the more we notice when our children are doing things right, the more motivated they will be to behave better.'",
"Within a meal a parent might say: ‘You’re sitting up straight’ or ‘You’re using your napkin instead of your sleeve’ or even 'Your chewing with your mouth closed and I cant see any of the food in your mouth’.",
"'If you take a moment to look carefully, there’s always something your son is doing that’s OK that you can comment on,' Janis-Norton says.",
"'For example, if your son is talking too loudly, just look at him, with a friendly face, and wait a few seconds until he pauses.",
"Then at that moment you can say, with a big smile, \"And now you’re not talking too loudly.",
"You’re using your indoor voice\".'",
"Helena Bonham-Carter, who took a course in Calmer, Easier, Happier Parenting in 2010 is just one mother who has been helped by Janis-Norton's strategies.",
"'It absolutely works,' the star said of trying Descriptive Praise with her son Billy, then seven.",
"'Billy is lapping it up.",
"And as a parent, you become happier because you’re observing all these good things about your child, if you’re being specific about what they’ve done.'"

"A 17-year-old boy has undergone the world's first penis reduction surgery, surgeons claim.",
"The American teen requested the surgery after his penis grew too large, restricting his ability to have sex or play competitive sports.",
"The boy's surgeons were shocked when he came to them complaining that his penis was too big.",
"When flaccid, it measured almost seven inches in length and had a circumference of 10 inches - around the size of a grapefruit.",
"Surgeons described it as being shaped like an American football.",
"The surgeon who treated the teenager, Rafael Carrion, a urologist at the University of South Florida, told MailOnline: 'There comes a time in every urologist's career that a patient makes a request so rare and impossible to comprehend that all training breaks down and leaves the physician speechless.",
"'That question was \"can you make my penis smaller\"?'",
"A 17-year-old boy in Florida is thought to be the first person to undergo penis reduction surgery.",
"The teenager requested the operation after his penis (pictured on an X-ray) grew too large .",
"The teenager had suffered from several bouts of priapism - an unwanted erection, due to having a condition in which abnormally-shaped blood cells block vessels in the penis, causing it to swell.",
"These episodes had left his penis bloated and misshapen.",
"He said he was unable to have sex or play competitive sport, had difficulty wearing his pants due to his 'large and heavy phallus', and was embarrassed by how visible it appeared underneath regular clothing.",
"Though his penis was so large, it did not grow when he had erections - it merely became firmer.",
"'His penis had inflated like a balloon,' said Dr Carrion.",
"'It sounds like a man's dream - a tremendously inflated phallus - but unfortunately although it was a generous length, it's girth was just massive, especially around the middle.",
"'It looked like an American football.'",
"Dr Carrion and his team looked at the medical literature but couldn't find any precedent for what to do.",
"'Lord knows there's a global race on how to make it longer and thicker in plastic surgery circles, but very little on how to make it smaller,' he said.",
"In the end, they decided to embark on a surgical technique normally used to treat Peyronie's disease, a condition where scar tissue develops along the penis, causing it to bend.",
"The surgeons sliced along an old circumcision scar, unwrapped the skin of the penis, and cut out two segments of tissue from either side.",
"'It was a bit like having two side tummy-tucks - that's how we explained it to him,' said Dr Carrion.",
"The teenager said he was unable to have sex or play competitive sport, had difficulty wearing his pants due to his 'large and heavy phallus', and was embarrassed by how visible it appeared underneath clothing (file pic) The doctors were able to bypass the urethra - the tube which carries urine through the penis - and all of the nerves that provide sensation.",
"The teenager spent just two days in hospital before returning home, apparently 'ecstatic' with his new penis.",
"The doctors did not take final measurements of the penis, although Dr Carrion told MailOnline the result was 'generous'.",
"'It's slightly longer and slightly thicker than the average male, but now it looks symmetrical, and the patient was very satisfied,' he said.",
"The teen now has no problem having normal erections and has full sensation.",
"'It looks cosmetically appealing, and he said it was a life-changing event, he's all smiles,' said Carrion.",
"Since the paper describing the surgery was published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine, Dr Carrion has only had one person approach him to request the same surgery.",
"He said: 'This [second] man seems to have a naturally large penis, because there's nothing unusual in his medical history, so it doesn't seem like there's any real abnormality in this case'.",
"Whereas the first teenager had an obvious medical condition that needed treating, performing surgery on someone who is completely healthy but having difficulties with the size of his penis is another matter, said Dr Carrion.",
"'These are controversial waters we're stepping in,' he added.",
"'Who is to judge what is a legitimate complaint and what isn't?",
"'You don't normally have men complaining about this kind of thing.",
"These are very unique cases.'"

"Bothered: Elderly and vulnerable homeowners are being targeted with nuisance calls (posed by model) Firms that bombard pensioners and Alzheimer’s sufferers with nuisance text messages and cold calls must be reined in, the Information Commissioner says.",
"Christopher Graham, head of the watchdog responsible for guarding our personal information, said the Government was ‘letting people down’ by refusing to strengthen legislation to stop millions of people being harassed by calls.",
"He urged ministers to change the law to make it easier to clamp down on unwanted calls and spam texts by companies promising to write off debts, pursue compensation and sell anything from mobile phones to double glazing.",

"Jailed: Dr Michael Salmon, 80, faces his final years in prison after he was convicted of 11 sex attacks on six girls he was treating and jailed for 18 years .",
"A ‘Cold-blooded and ruthless’ doctor who sexually assaulted patients as young as 12 at the hospital at the centre of the Jimmy Savile scandal has been jailed for 18 years.",
"Michael Salmon, 80, was convicted of a string of rapes and indecent assaults on seriously ill patients at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, where Savile abused scores of youngsters at the same time.",
"Salmon, a renowned children’s doctor who was praised by Princess Diana for his charity work, lured a 16-year-old girl to his home where he raped her in his bedroom.",
"Other vulnerable teenagers were molested between 1980 and 1988, often while their unsuspecting parents sat on the other side of a screen at the Buckinghamshire hospital.",
"It can now be revealed that Salmon has enjoyed the lifestyle of a country gentleman for the past decade on an NHS pension worth as much as £100,000 a year – despite being struck off from the medical register in 1991.",
"He was jailed for 18 months in November 1990 after admitting indecently assaulting three girls as young as 12.",

"He betrayed no emotion as he listened to moving victim impact statements from the women, one of whom said she suffered nightmares and another who said she couldn’t get Salmon’s face ‘out of her head’.",

"Police failed to notice a mentally ill 16-year-old girl in custody had refused food or water for 44 hours before they took her to hospital, it has been revealed.",
"The 'serious' incident was among several highlighted in a report by HM Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) on standards of child protection within Nottinghamshire Police.",
"Conducted in September as part of a programme assessing child protection throughout England and Wales, HMIC inspectors expressed concern at cases in which children were being unnecessarily detained in police custody overnight.",
"The 16-year-old girl refused food or water for 44 hours before police took her to hospital, the report revealed .",
"Giving details of 'the most serious case' seen by inspectors, in which a 16-year-old was detained for 52 hours before being taken to hospital, the report said: 'It was only after the girl had been in custody for 44 hours that custody staff realised that she had gone without food or water.",
"'She was subsequently treated by a paramedic before being taken to hospital.",
"'The force was fully aware of the circumstances of this case, which was subject to an independent health service review at the time of the inspection, but it was not clear to inspectors that steps had been taken to learn the lessons.'",
"In a statement, Nottinghamshire Police said the girl, who was in custody under mental health laws for her own protection, had declined the offer of food and water on several occasions.",
"HM Inspector of Constabulary Zoe Billingham (pictured) said it was clear Nottinghamshire Police needed to do more to improve its approach to protecting children .",

"'We found some areas of practice that are uniformly good, for example, the management of sex offenders.",
"'However there is often a lack of effective supervision of child protection investigations, which sometimes results in unacceptable delays and an inconsistent approach across the force.",
"'I encourage Nottinghamshire Police to act on our recommendations as a matter of urgency, and I have asked that within six weeks it provides me with an action plan to demonstrate how it will take forward our recommendations for improvement.'",

"Lord Darzi, who suffered from meningitis himself as a child, has slammed the NHS for not introducing a meningitis vaccine, despite it being approved .",
"Former health minister Lord Darzi has condemned the government's two year delay in introducing a vaccine against the last major strain of meningitis because of wrangling over funding.",
"Britain has one of the highest rates of Meningitis B in the world and campaigners have warned that dozens of lives have needlessly been lost to the disease because of procrastination by officials.",
"Prof Lord Darzi, who revealed for the first time that he almost died of the disease aged five, has even personally met with Jeremy Hunt, the Health Secretary, to plead with him to introduce the vaccine on the NHS as soon as possible.",
"He said: 'Every parent should be getting the vaccine through the NHS.'",
"The Bexsero Meningitis B vaccine was licensed two years ago and a year later it was backed for NHS use by vaccine advisers, who initially declared it would not be cost-effective 'at any price'.",
"However the Department of Health did not even enter negotiations with the manufacturers Novartis until six months ago.",
"Statistics show one baby dies every month in Britain from Meningitis B.",
"There has been stalemate over the cost of the jab to the NHS, which has not been revealed.",
"It is available privately at a cost of up to £600 in some areas.",
"Lord Darzi, who is patron of the charity Meningitis Now, said: 'The government eventually decided to make the vaccine available through the NHS after a significant amount of lobbying from the charity, including myself in visiting the Secretary to State to discuss the matter.",
"'I think there has been some delays since the announcement by the Secretary of State which are mostly operational.",
"'I hope they will be overcome so that the vaccine will be utilised by those in need.'",
"He said: 'Although I got meningitis at the age of 5, I still remember it was the least pleasant experience but more importantly I am very fortunately and lucky to be alive.",
"'I believe if the NHS has approved the vaccine, then every parent should be getting the vaccine through the NHS route rather than the costly private alternative.'",
"It is feared that if agreement cannot be reached soon the process will be further delayed by the General Election.",
"A U-turn by medical advisers to the Government last March led to routine vaccination being approved for infants and a one-off catch up programme for babies aged three and four months.",
"Professor John Watson, deputy chief medical officer, said at the time: 'We will be working closely with Novartis in the coming months and, if negotiations are successful, we hope to work with the other UK health departments to introduce a vaccine to prevent meningitis B as quickly as possible.'",
"The Bexsero Meningitis B vaccine was sanctioned for use two years ago, and approved for NHS use soon after, but health chiefs only entered talks with suppliers six months ago .",
"Meningitis Now has launched a hard hitting TV advert in an attempt to keep the disease in the forefront of ministers' minds.",
"Founder of the charity, Steve Dayman who lost his baby Spencer to Meningitis B in 1982, said 'I have waited half my life for this vaccine – it's a watershed moment in the fight to eradicate the deadly disease.",
"'Now is the time to act to save our children – one more lost is another heinous and scandalous injustice.",
"'On this unwelcome anniversary, I call on Government and the vaccine manufacturer to take advantage of the last window of time before the General Election to do the right thing.'",
"During the last two years there have been 1,130 cases of Meningitis B, of which at least 452 people died or suffered disabilities.",
"Many of these would have been avoidable if the vaccine had been introduced immediately after it was licensed.",
"Mr Dayman added: 'I was sick to my stomach to learn that so many people have died in the two years due to red tape.",
"'Tragically, in the time, we've heard of and helped numerous families freshly touched by the disease, which prove this lethargic bureaucracy is costing lives and causing disabilities.'",
"A spokesman for Novartis said 'Novartis Vaccines is currently engaged in a procurement process with the UK Department of Health to agree a price for Bexsero to be included on the National Immunisation Programme.",
"'Whilst it is not possible to comment on the process, or predict how long it will last, both sides are working to come to an agreement and Novartis Vaccines stands ready to supply Bexsero immediately.",
"'Unfortunately the confidential nature of this process makes it impossible for Novartis Vaccines to comment further on any elements of the negotiations.'",
"A Department of Health spokesperson said 'We are very clear that we want to see this vaccine introduced as soon as possible to help protect children from this devastating disease.",
"'The JCVI (Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation) recommended that a MenB vaccine be introduced, but only at a cost-effective price – below the price published by Novartis.",
"'We need to make sure NHS funds are used effectively and negotiations are continuing.'"

"The altercation happened at the The Spinnaker, pictured above, in Sotogrande on Spain's Costa del Sol on Saturday night after Devinder Kainth reportedly saw Sandro Rottman filming his daughter .",
"It is claimed that Mr Rottman was very close to the entourage and was involved in organising the event.",
"Another British expat who has known Mr Rottman for eight years claimed he had 'attached himself to the couple' when Miss Price came to open her clothes line KP Equestrian in the resort.",
"The source said: 'He had slick-backed hair and was always dressed very smartly'.",
"A spokeswoman for Miss Price told MailOnline: 'Katie was present at an event where Mr Rottman was working for the organisers.'",
"In a full statement she said: 'I had no recollection of meeting him as he was not my assistant but it appears I did during the course of my one day working trip to Sotogrande promoting KP equestrian.",
"This is clearly a tragic incident that will impact the families of all involved.'",
"A spokesman for the Santa Maria Polo Club said yesterday: 'Katie Price's visit must have been a private visit.",
"'More than 70,000 spectators, including many British visitors, come to see our International Summer tournament every year.",
"'We do not know if Katie Price hired Sandro Rottman's services.",
"We can state categorically that Mr Rottman never had any type of working relationship with Santa Maria Polo Club.'",
"He has been described as ‘something of an eccentric character’ who was well known for years around the exclusive resort of Sotogrande.",
"But as yet very little else is known about Sandro Rottman, right.",
"The 43-year-old German is understood to have been charged with child pornography a month before he was allegedly battered to death for filming a British father’s daughter at a restaurant.",
"But British expat Fiona Goodwood – who has known Mr Rottman for the last 12 years – has dismissed claims he had been engaging in paedophilia.",
"She said: ‘If Mr Rottmann had been charged before as reported, it would be very unlikely that he would be sitting in a public place brazenly doing what he had been accused of?’ Mrs Goodwood also found it hard to believe he would have been caught with child porn images because she knew him as such a skilled computer programmer.",
"She said: ‘All his work that I have seen him carry out previously was meticulously passworded.",
"'I find it very hard to believe that if there were any pornographic images, as has been claimed, that he would be so naive as not have password protected them and made it very difficult to access especially in the circumstances described.’ Mr Rottman appears to have held down a number of different jobs, being variously described by locals as a web designer, IT consultant and he once even helped to organise the launch of Katie Price’s polo clothing range.",
"Meanwhile, other locals say they knew him as a drunk who was once so intoxicated he fell into the sea and had to be fished out.",
"He walked with a limp and is thought to have been treated for a liver problem previously.",
"A worker at the exclusive El Octogano Beach Club, near The Spinnaker Restaurant where Rottman was killed on Saturday, said: ‘He had a drink problem and would get through up to three bottles of vodka a day.",
"‘He’s been banned for the past year because he ran up a huge bill he never paid.",
"‘He’d fallen on hard times after making a lot of money during the boom years in Spain when he was spending £50 a day on drink.",
"‘He was always on his own and always on his computer because that was how he made his money but I never saw him misbehaving.’ Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article."

"A headmaster who clashed with teaching unions after being brought in to tackle a failing school has been removed from his job.",
"Rory Fox was made a 'super head' at Ryde Academy, on the Isle of Wight, in 2013 with the task of improving standards and attainment.",
"He launched a crackdown on pupils' bad behaviour and is understood to have confronted some teachers about their alleged poor conduct.",
"It is claimed he was due to hold disciplinary meetings with three staff members on Wednesday last week, but instead left his post without notice.",
"Teachers arrived the next day to find him absent.",
"Shortly afterwards, his job was advertised with a six-figure salary.",
"Dr Fox had been appointed to the role after improving results at a school in Essex, and had been head of learning at a prison.",
"Ryde Academy had been rated 'inadequate' and put in special measures, but under Dr Fox's tenure this rose to 'requires improvement'.",
"In a report in November, Ofsted inspectors described him as a 'determined principal' who had been 'tenacious in tackling teachers' underperformance'.",
"But Ofsted criticised the school's sponsor, Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), saying it had not always been supportive enough of the school's leaders.",
"During Dr Fox's time at Ryde, he adopted a number of strict measures including sending hundreds of children home for breaches of uniform rules.",
"In a letter to union leaders, revealed in November last year, the head said 22 poorly performing teachers remained at the school.",
"He said some senior members of staff skipped classes or arrived late and displayed aggressive behaviour – which included bullying junior colleagues.",
"Dr Fox also complained that some teachers were spilling coffee on homework and refusing to mark it.",
"He said he found 'unions disquieting staff with claims about what they can and can't do with lesson observations … [and] tying us up in time-consuming correspondence'.",
"He alleged there were rigged union votes, obstruction and delaying tactics.",
"Union leaders complained of 'excessive burdens' on staff, he said, adding: 'We have teachers complaining about being asked to set homework.",
"It is clear to me that there are some very odd views about what is 'excessive'.'",
"During his stint, he famously launched a crackdown on pupils' bad behaviour and uniforms- sending 40 girls home in one day because their skirts were too short- which was reported in the Daily Mail last December .",
"A source said Dr Fox had taken a confrontational attitude with unions and had refused to offer redundancy to teachers he believed were performing poorly, deeming it a waste of taxpayers' money.",
"The head was due to stay in his post until the end of this academic year but has now been removed by AET 'to work on other projects'.",

"A spokesman for AET said: 'We deny that the reason for [Dr Fox's] transfer was for poor relations with teacher unions.'",

"The intense prehistoric hurricanes were fuelled in part by warmer sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean than have been the norm off the U.S. East Coast over the last few hundred years.",
"However, as ocean temperatures have slowly inched upward in recent decades, tropical North Atlantic sea surface temperatures have surpassed the warmth of prehistoric levels--and are expected to warm more over the next century as the climate heats up, Professor Donnelly said.",
"'We hope this study broadens our sense of what is possible and what we should expect in a warmer climate,' he added.",
"Scientists believe a change in sea surface temperatures in the western North Atlantic caused the historic storms — and they say climate change could cause such storms to return.",
"Pictured is a satellite view of Hurricane Earl as it threatens the U.S. East Coast in 2010 .",
"The research is based on sediments found beneath Salt Pond in Falmouth which suggests that, between the years 250 and 1150, more than 20 huge storms hit the area.",
"'We may need to begin planning for a category three hurricane landfall every decade or so rather than every 100 or 200 years.",
"'The risk may be much greater than we anticipated.'",
"The team looked at sediment deposits from Salt Pond near Falmouth on Cape Cod.",
"The pond is separated from the ocean by a 4.3 to 5.9 ft (1.3 to 1.8 metres) high sand barrier.",
"Over hundreds of years, strong hurricanes have deposited sediment over the barrier and into the pond where it has remained undisturbed.",
"The researchers extracted 30ft (9 metre) deep sediment cores, which they then analysed in a laboratory.",
"Similar to reading a tree ring to tell the age of a tree and the climate conditions that existed in a given year, scientists can read a sediment core to determine when intense hurricanes occurred.",
"They found evidence of 32 prehistoric hurricanes, along with the remains of three documented storms that occurred in 1991, 1675 and 1635.",
"The sediments showed that there were two periods of intense hurricane activity on Cape Cod -- from 150 to 1150, and 1400 to 1675.",
"Droughts in the US Southwest and Central Plains during the last half of this century could be drier and longer than drought conditions seen in those regions in the last 1,000 years.",
"This is according to a Nasa study which combined projections from climate models, to find human-produced greenhouse gas emissions drives up the risk of severe droughts in these regions.",
"Natural droughts, like the 1930s Dust Bowl, and the current drought in the Southwest have historically lasted maybe a decade or a little less, said Ben Cook, a Nasa climate scientist.",
"'What these results are saying is we're going to get a drought similar to those events, but it is probably going to last at least 30 to 35 years,' he said.",
"According to Cook, the current likelihood of a megadrought, a drought lasting more than three decades, is 12 percent.",
"If greenhouse gas emissions stop increasing in the mid-21st century,Nasa projects the likelihood of megadrought to reach more than 60 per cent.",
"However, if greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase along current trajectories throughout the 21st century, there is an 80 per cent likelihood of a decades-long megadrought in the Southwest and Central Plains between the years 2050 and 2099.",
"In this image, scientists collect a sediment core; the sediment shows intense storms going back 2,000 year .",
"The earlier period of powerful hurricane activity matched previous studies that found evidence of hurricanes during the same period in more southerly areas of the western North Atlantic Ocean basin - from the Caribbean to the Gulf Coast.",
"Powerful storms also battered more southerly U.S. coasts .",
"These early storms were more frequent, and in some cases were likely more intense, than the most severe hurricanes Cape Cod has seen in historical times, including Hurricane Bob in 1991 and a 1635 hurricane that generated a 20-foot storm surge, according to Donnelly.",
"The hurricane activity continued in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico until 1400, although there was a lull during this time in New England.",
"A shift in hurricane activity in the North Atlantic occurred around 1400, when activity picked up from the Bahamas to New England, until about 1675.",
"Pictured is a home in Union Beach, New Jersey, destroyed by a Hurricane Sandy in 2012 ."

"Prime Minister Tony Abbott has been condemned on social media after he described job losses under the Labor government as a 'holocaust of jobs'.",
"In parliament on Thursday, he used the term - which means destruction or slaughter on a mass scale but which has become inextricably linked to the Nazi genocide in which approximately six million Jews died - to the loss of defence jobs when Labor were in power.",
"'Under members opposite defence jobs in this country declined by 10 per cent.",
"There was a holocaust of jobs, a holocaust of jobs in defence industries under members opposite,' Mr Abbott said.",

"Prime Minister Tony Abbott speaks during Question Time at Parliament House in Canberra .",
"Lesley Plummer said Abbott's job was 'gone' after that remark .",
"Tony Abbott's choice of language was quickly pointed out despite him correcting himself .",
"Earlier Thursday, Mr Abbott used tough language on another topic, telling a radio interviewer who asked if he had any guilt about the detention of children in immigration centres that he had, 'None whatsoever.'",
"The question was prompted by a new Human Rights Commission report that found children in the centres are suffering mental and physical affects because of their detention.",
"Mr Abbott went on to say that 'of course' he would like the children to be released, but attacked the commission for politicising the issue.",
"Buzzfeed Australia reporter Mark Di Stefano commented: 'It was the killing six million Jewish people of job losses.'",
"Another Twitter user asked the PM: 'Are you on something or just more incomparably stupid than I already believed?'",
"Mark Simpson wrote: 'Wow, I can't believe it, but @TonyAbbottMHR actually seems to be getting stupider today.'",
"Robert Knox said that despite Mr Abbott's apology, the comment was 'still a very inappropriate comment for a PM to make, mouth works faster than the brain'.",
"Mr Abbott made the comparison after attacking former Labor Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.",

"The humble cask wine is celebrating a milestone, turning the ripe old age of 50 this year.",
"Fondly known as boxed wine, bag-in-box, goon bag or goon sack, this South Australian invention has come a long way.",
"Despite the innovative design, which is certainly quite prominent on our drinking culture, Aussies have also made a fundamental contribution to society for its rather radical ideas and inventions over the years.",
"Just to name a few, they include the first ever notepad, ultrasound, bionic ear, pacemaker, plastic banknotes and Wi Fi.",
"Of course, there's also our iconic Vegemite and Hills Hoist clothesline.",
"This woman appears to be playing a round of 'Goon of Fortune' by pegging the bag of wine on a Hills Hoist clothesline - which was also invented by an Aussie .",
"The invention of cask wine began when winemaker Thomas Angove of Renmark, northeast of Adelaide, designed a plastic bladder as an alternative for the traditional wine bottle.",
"The bag is placed in a box and wine is poured through an air-tight valve.",
"Son John Angove, who's now the managing director of Angove Family Winemakers, watched his father's invention come to life when it was patented on April 20, 1965.",
"He told the ABC the idea evolved from his father talking about creating the sack in old goat skins to a plastic bag.",
"'He put the plastic bag inside a cardboard box and it just grew from that,' he said.",
"'It was a pretty amazing idea and I remember as a youngster thinking: 'god Dad that's crazy, that'll never work, who's going to buy wine in a plastic bag?\".'",
"The invention has gained a lot of love over the years - also helping to Aussies to further develop drinking game 'Goon of Fortune', which involves pegging the bag of wine on a clothesline.",
"And when the liquid goods have been consumed, it is then often reused as a makeshift pillow.",
"CSIRO scientists were also behind the development of the method of Wi Fi in 1992 .",

"Birchall. It was a lightbulb moment as he cut sheets of paper in half and used cardboard on the back then glued them together at the top .",
"In 1961 the ultrasound scanner was developed by David Robinson and George Kossoff at the Australian Department of Health .",
"One of Australia's other well-known invention is Vegemite, the iconic spread founded in 1922 by Dr Cyril P. Callister in Melbourne.",
"The clapperboard, also known as a slate used in film-making, was invented by film director and producer Frank Thring Sr of Melbourne's Efftee Studios in 1930.",
"Then comes the popular choice of sun protection for Aussie beachgoers - zinc cream - which is sun block made from zinc oxide, developed by the Fauldings Pharmaceutical Company in 1940.",
"Also the Hills Hoist clothesline was developed by Lance Hill in 1945 - although it is said the design was originally patented by Gilbert Toyne of Adelaide in 1926.",
"In 1906, the world's first feature film - The Story of Kelly and the Gang - was shown .",
"The film about the infamous bushranger Ned Kelly was over an hour long .",
"The Australian feature film was written and directed by Charles Tait .",
"The list goes on as they are plenty more inventions proudly made Down Under.",
"Four years later, in 1906, the world's first feature film - The Story of Kelly and the Gang - was shown.",
"It was just over an hour long. Then there's the paddle boat surf skis which were first invented by brothers Harry and Jack McLaren of Port Macquarie, north of Sydney, in 1912.",
"In 1926 Dr Mark Lidwill made an impromptu pacemaker at Sydney's Crown Street Women's Hospital and in 1961 the ultrasound scanner was developed by David Robinson and George Kossoff at the Australian Department of Health.",
"The baby safety capsule was established in 1984 while the ploymer bank note was created by CSIRO scientists in 1988.",
"The buffalo fly traps were also established by CSIRO in 1991, a low-tech plastic tent which traps flies when they are brushed off cattle as they walk through.",
"The CSIRO scientists then developed the method behind Wi Fi in 1992.",
"Some smaller household goods invented by Aussies include the splayd, a combination of a knife, fork and spoon, by William McArthur in 1943 and more recently the heg, a clothes peg with a hook developed by Scott Boocock in 2012.",
"Of course, there are more which may ring a bell such as the power board in 1972 by Peter Talbot who worked for Kambrook, the bionic ear created by Dr Gaeme Clark of the University of Melbourne in 1979 and spray on skin in 1992 developed by Dr Fiona Wood at Royal Perth Hospital.",

"Fox was widely mocked for that report and for comments describing the English city of Birmingham as 'totally Muslim.'",
"The broadcaster later apologized for 'some regrettable errors.'",

"'Fox News will invoke every protection afforded it under all applicable laws.'",
"The city of Paris first said they intended to sue Rupert Murdoch's Fox News after the U.S. cable network 'insulted' the French capital's image, Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo said last month.",
"During an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour, Hidalgo said the city was planning legal action against Fox News because the honor of Paris had been 'prejudiced.'",

"Response: Fox News presenter Julie Banderas told viewers: 'Over the course of this last week we have made some regrettable errors on air'.",
"She added the apology applies to 'discussions of so-called no-go zones' Emerson then took the idea a step further by stating; 'And they’re places where the governments, like France, Britain, Sweden, Germany — they don’t exercise any sovereignty so you basically have zones where Sharia courts are set up, where Muslim density is very intense, where police don’t go in.'",
"Finally, Emerson wrapped the segment up by making the claim that Birmingham, England was an example of one of these zones, and that 'non-Muslims just simply don’t go in.'",

"Sir Peter Fahy, national police lead for preventing extremism, said officers who demanded the names of people who bought Charlie Hebdo in the wake of the Paris attacks appeared 'overzealous and unneccessary' Anti-terror units handed local police officers the names of British newsagents who stocked the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in the wake of the Paris attacks.",
"But the decision by some forces to then visit the outlets and quiz shopkeepers about who bought the publication was 'overzealous and unnecessary', Britain's anti-terror police chief has said.",
"Sir Peter Fahy, chief constable of Greater Manchester Police (GMP) and national police lead for preventing extremism, said he was now urgently clarifying guidance to all UK forces.",
"It comes after police were caught asking British newsagents which sold copies of the satirical magazine for details of the customers who bought it.",
"Shopkeepers in Wales, Wiltshire and Cheshire reported that police approached them and demanded personal information on readers of the magazine.",
"In a letter to the Guardian, Sir Peter said that the move to provide details of newsagents to local police was intended to 'provide community reassurance'.",
"But he admitted that officers who then asked for details of individuals who bought the magazine had appeared 'over-zealous and unnecessary'.",
"He said: 'Following the attacks in Paris, there has been an increase in incidents of antisemitism and Islamaphobia.",
"'Forces were aware of the potential for heightened tension with the release of Charlie Hebdo and many neighbourhood police officers, who are well known in their communities, may have opted to visit sellers to establish any concerns and provide reassurance.",
"'However, it is important that we do not erode the very freedoms that we are trying to protect.",
"I understand why asking for the names of those who might have bought this magazine will appear over-zealous and unnecessary.",
"There was no national guidance to this effect and it is not to be supported unless there is clear evidence that a crime has been committed.'",
"Wiltshire police have since apologised, while the other forces have denied their officers asked for names.",
"The MailOnline revealed yesterday that The Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) was handed a list of Charlie Hebdo's UK stockists by John Menzies, one of the magazine's UK distributors, via the National Counter-Terrorism Policing unit.",
"ACPO then alerted forces who had shops selling Charlie Hebdo in their area, saying that officers should be aware that the magazine was on sale.",
"But while the alert said police may wish to visit the shops involved, they should only do so if there were signs of rising tensions.",
"Officers visited a small newsagents and post office in Wiltshire and requested the personal details of all subscribers to the Charlie Hebdo magazine (pictured), which was the subject of a terrorist attack.",
"Now it has emerged that officers in Wales and Cheshire have also approached shopkeepers .",
"The advice said forces should review the lists for retailers using post codes, and if there are raised community tension indicators, or a large number of copies advertised for sale, then they should consider a site visit.",
"The ACPO advice did not recommend visiting each shop, and did not mention taking down the details of customers who had bought the publication, according to the spokesman.",
"It would appear that the three forces concerned either misunderstood the advice, or acted on their own impulse when they decided to ask for information on customers.",
"Paul Merrett, 57, owner of a newsagent in Presteigne, Wales, said a detective and a police community support officer arrived at his shop and started to question his wife about the people who bought them.",
"He said: 'They wanted to know where we had got them from, and did we know who we had sold them to.",
"Twelve people were killed when gunmen (pictured) stormed the office of Charlie Hebdo in Paris on January 7 .",
"'[My wife] said she wasn't prepared to give any names.",
"She thought we were in trouble for selling them originally, but they said we weren't, and they just wanted to know who bought them.",
"'We didn't give them any details.",
"It was all very strange. There were a couple of customers in here at the time, so it soon got around town.'",
"A Dyfed-Powys police spokesman denied that customer details were asked for.",
"She said: 'It was not the intention to gather any personal information of those who purchased the magazine and we can confirm no purchaser details were asked for or recorded.",
"Dyfed Powys Police can confirm the visits were only made to enhance public safety and to provide community reassurance.'",
"Cheshire police also denied that officers had asked for customers details.",
"A spokesman said: 'Officers were asked to call into local newsagents in their area to provide visible reassurance around the time of publication and were not asked under any circumstances to make enquiries as to who was purchasing or preordering the Charlie Hebdo magazine.",
"'Each area endeavored to visit as many newsagents as possible however we cannot provide an exact figure.'",
"Wiltshire officers asked at least three newsagents for people's details.",
"The force apologised after admitting that an officer had taken down the names of four people in the town of Corsham who bought the magazine featuring a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed on the front.",
"A spokesman said: 'Wiltshire Police are confident that the police officer’s intention was purely around enhancing public safety and ensuring that the newsagent was advised appropriately.'",
"The Paris massacre led to an outpouring of support around the world, including the 'Je Suis Charlie' message .",
"Emma Carr, director of Big Brother Watch, said: 'The Charlie Hebdo attack brought millions of people worldwide together to condemn those who seek to silence free speech through threats of intimidation and violence.",
"'This move by the police is entirely unacceptable.",
"This sort of investigation would be understandable if a crime was being committed, but the fact is that they have requested information about people who have purchased a perfectly legal publication.",
"'It is far from clear why the police thought it was acceptable to request this information or what it is that they actually intend to do with it.",
"Considering the comments made in the aftermath of the attacks in Paris by world leaders, that free speech should be celebrated and encouraged, the moves by the police in the UK completely undermine that.'",
"Hundreds of Britons queued for a copy of the £3.50 souvenir edition of the magazine, published following last month's attack by Islamic extremists on its offices which left 12 people dead.",
"John Menzies said it had handed over a list of newsagents which had ordered the magazine in the interest of safety and security.",
"A spokesman said: 'Given the sensitive nature of this product, Menzies Distribution's priority was the safety and security of our employees and customers.",
"'Where appropriate we consulted with the relevant authorities to ensure the these priorities were met at all times.'",
"Smiths News, another Charlie Hebdo distributor, has also refused to comment.",
"The move has been branded 'entirely unacceptable' by privacy campaigners."
